🎉 Host a Party

Turn Your Gathering Into a Force for Belonging

What if your next dinner, birthday, or backyard bash could help protect lifesaving shelter for women, transgender, and nonbinary individuals in Denver?

By hosting a fundraiser party for Bridge the Gap – Belonging Can’t Wait, you can raise money and awareness to help The Delores Project close a critical $250,000 funding gap—while bringing your community together around something that matters.

🎉 Why Host a Fundraiser Party?

Because community is powerful. Whether your circle is big or small, you can:

  • Raise vital funds to support inclusive shelter

  • Introduce new people to The Delores Project’s mission

  • Celebrate connection, joy, and the belief that belonging can’t wait

🛠️ How It Works

Hosting a fundraiser party is easier than you think. Here’s how to get started:

  1. Pick Your Party Style

    Host a brunch, BBQ, potluck, game night, birthday, house concert—whatever feels authentic to you. It can be big or small, in-person or virtual.

  2. Set a Goal

    Decide how much you’d like to raise. $250? $2,500? Every dollar helps bridge the gap.

  3. Invite Your People

    Invite friends, neighbors, coworkers, and family. Let them know it’s a party with a purpose. We’ll provide sample invites and messaging you can customize.

  4. Inspire & Inform

    We’ll send you a host toolkit with flyers, talking points, donation links, and stories to share. Let your guests know why this campaign matters—and how they can help.

  5. Collect Donations

    Use your custom fundraising page or QR code to collect donations on the spot. No need to handle cash—we’ve made it easy and secure.
