ILI Networking Socials

Goal is 10 events in 2024

The budget for the ILI networking social event has been thoughtfully planned to ensure the event's success while maintaining a comprehensive financial strategy. The budget includes various essential components, including staffing, venue, refreshments, photography, marketing, and promotion.

Firstly, we have allocated $2,000 to hire and compensate five dedicated youth staff members. These individuals will play a crucial role in ensuring the smooth operation of the event, from assisting with registration to assisting with the event. Each staff member will receive a competitive rate of $10 per hour for their valuable support, and they will work for four hours per month for over ten months.

The venue costs $2,500 for the year, with a monthly rental fee of $250. This allocation encompasses the cost of securing a suitable location for Networking Social, including any necessary amenities and accommodations.

To enhance the overall experience for our attendees, we have budgeted $4,000 for refreshments. This budget allows us to provide a wide range of delectable food and beverages, catering to diverse tastes and dietary preferences. Well-catered events contribute to guest satisfaction and foster a positive networking environment.

Additionally, $2,000 has been allocated for event photography, with a monthly expense of $200. High-quality photography is essential for capturing memorable moments, documenting the event's proceedings, and promoting future ILI networking socials.

Furthermore, we have set aside a substantial budget of $5,000 for marketing and promotion efforts. Successful promotion is key to attracting a diverse and engaged audience to the event. This budget will cover various promotional activities, including advertising, social media campaigns, and outreach efforts to maximize attendance and impact.

In summary, the total budget for the ILI networking social amounts to $15,500. This budget has been carefully structured to ensure the event's success by providing excellent staffing, securing an appropriate venue, offering delightful refreshments, capturing memories through professional photography, and conducting effective marketing and promotion. We are dedicated to delivering a valuable and memorable experience to all participants, fostering connections, and promoting the ILI networking community.

Leadership Assessment Workshop

Goal is 25 teams @ $2000.00 each.

Narrative Description of the Budget:

The ILI Leadership Assessment workshop, integral to nurturing new youth leadership teams, necessitates a thoughtfully planned budget for its successful implementation. For each of the two iterations – the initial and the follow-up session after 120 days – a budget of $1000 is allocated. This budget accommodates various essential components: compensation for families participating in the program, adequate remuneration for the expertise of our facilitators, provision of refreshments, a stipend for the dedicated community coach, and a necessary processing fee. The cumulative budget of $2000 for both sessions underscores our commitment to providing a comprehensive and enriching experience for the youth, facilitating their journey in self-assessment and personal growth.

To fund this important venture, we are dependent on the collective fundraising efforts of each team through the activities organized by ILI and the Metrovoice Youth Program. This approach not only secures the financial resources required for the workshop but also fosters a spirit of community involvement and responsibility among the participants. It aligns perfectly with our overarching goal of developing leadership skills and a sense of community engagement in our youth.
