Parties that Build Community


February 2013











Whether you’re celebrating family, friendship or successes at work, festive parties are the perfect venue to commemorate important milestones in life and help build the spirit of community among people. Expanding your parties to include those outside your inner circle is a wonderful way of spreading the love and allowing it to reach the people and causes that need it the most.

At your next event, consider infusing your celebration with creative themes that allow you to build community within your own family, circle of friends, or business, and also to include sectors of society that you would like to help out. Considering community not just deepens these milestones we love to celebrate, it also helps raise awareness and gives meaning to the occasions we often take for granted in our daily lives.


Charity Bash
If you have a soft spot for a certain charity, consider partnering up with them at your next event. Guests can bring suggested donations, and a program can be designed to feature a short speech from the organization involved. Whether you’re supporting animal adoption, a children’s orphanage, or an environmental cause, it also helps to set up a corner of your venue as an information booth where guests can get more information about the charity. Save a couple of bucks by seeking sponsorships for your party to help with food and beverage, giveaways and even raffle prizes.

Offbeat Milestones
While baby showers, birthday parties and anniversaries are part and parcel of everyone’s party schedule throughout the year, people hardly take time to celebrate other occasions that are equally important. Why not throw a promotion party for your best friend who just made it to top management? Or a simple bash for your kids to celebrate the transition from end-of-classes to start-of-summer? Think of the little joys of life and know that every moment is also worth celebrating.

Indie Flavor
Do you have a friend whose home-baked goodies deserve commercial success? Or do you think your friends and colleagues would love your favorite fashion designer’s dresses? Hold a party that celebrates independent brands—crafters, designers, home bakers and cooks, and other artists-in-their-own-right whom you feel deserve an expanded audience. Invite people from the press, friends and family, and distribute invitations all around and help create a community that supports local trade and talent.
