Easterseals Michigan hosted a non-event fundraiser throughout the month of March 2021 called the No Event, Event. It helped support people in the Midwest that were experiencing the Winter Blues which have been amplified during this pandemic. We decided to forgo a virtual event as many people we surveyed were tired of living a “virtual life”. Our Event was presented by the AFCO and EOTECH organizations that both embodied power, strength and resiliency which fit perfectly with our campaign. Our No Event, Event utilized the successful “give 1, get 1 model” in receiving a “Coping Box”. We worked with our talented ESM clinical staff to put together a top-quality gift box with items that could help individuals or families that we serve. Our donors could select to give a box to someone they know or donate it to a person served by Easterseals and keep one for themselves. *We also had 20 “Surprise & Delight” items randomly placed inside select coping boxes which included: (5) iPads, (5) $200 Visa Gift Cards, (5) Beats Headphones by Dr. Dre and (5) FitBit Fitness Trackers
Heartfelt thanks to our 69 Campaign Donors and our Sponsors! Together, we distributed 400 Coping Boxes and raised $70,976 to support Easterseals Michigan! Presenting Sponsors AFCO and EOTECH
