A Win-Win Situation.
You can use our organization to raise funds for your own. All you have to do is contact us.
The partnership concept was born from the SNO, Inc. production in 1999 at the Bradenton Municipal Auditorium. (BMA) The Bradenton Ballet Repertory kept profits from general seating ticket sales and The Humane Society kept the profits from bar sales. This relationship continued until 2003.
The move to the Manatee Convention and Civic Center (MCCC) opened up 2500 general seating tickets to interested partners who wish was to raise money for their programs. This concept expanded the visibility of the organizations, by raising awareness, expectations, and money.
Our goal is to have committed, hard-working volunteers, a steady growth of loyal supporters in attendance, and a sponsorship community helping to grow and enrich the lives of our citizens. SNO, Inc. has an established identity within the community that other organizations can use as a springboard to accomplish their goals.
SNO, Inc. has the foresight to realize that only by expanding into partnerships will it be able to achieve its own goals. Manatee County is diverse with many organizations of ranging sizes that make the possibility for partnerships endless. The relationship between SNO and its partners usually supports the mission of both of the organizations, and gives any group or organization the opportunity to raise funds without expenditure.
The events highlight the achievements of talented artists from the area, culturally enriching the community.
With 2500 general seats available for one performance at the MCCC (300 general seats available at the BMA) SNO can offer fundraising opportunities in the form of partnerships to many organizations. Through Grand Sponsorships for an event held at the MCC, a designated partner organization is given 200 general seating tickets as a donation on behalf of that Grand Sponsor. The lucky beneficiary can distribute them or sell them and keep the profits. Purchasing general seating tickets at reduced prices to sell for a profit can also start a partnership.
Larger organizations can take larger blocks of tickets and make significant money from the sale.
Smaller groups can benefit, too. Similar to the selling of gifts, candy bars, and gift-wrap, this concept lends itself very nicely to children¹s clubs and organizations. Many children can raise money for their own tickets to see the show while making money for their club or organization.
SNO, Inc. is committed to demonstrate to the community of Manatee County how rich in culture we truly are. Interested organizations may contacting donnariggs@snoinc.org or by mail: Saturday Night Out, Inc. - 310 3rd Avenue East - Bradenton, Florida 34208
