Sien Lok Society of Calgary 48 th Annual Chinese New Year Gala & Fundraiser Sponsorship Proposal February 11, 2017 Regency Palace Seafood Restaurant www.sienlok.org
[Event Background] The Annual Chinese New Year Gala & Fundraiser is dedicated to bringing families, business persons, members, and the public to experience Chinese Traditions in a fun environment through cultural entertainment and amazing food. It all began in 1968 when Sien Lok directors decided it would be unfortunate to not share and educate the general public of Chinese traditions, beliefs, and values. [Event Outline] The event takes place in Chinatown Calgary, at Regency Palace Seafood Restaurant, with the evening beginning at 5:30pm. Typical attendance for the Gala is approximately 500 individuals and all will be in formal wear or traditional Chinese attire. Guests can expect to indulge in a delicious traditional ten-course meal paired with exciting performances, and Sien Lok Society s Raffle to win amazing prizes. The evening ends on a high note where the live band Back in the Day will perform for the dance. [Event Organizers] This event would not be made possible without the outstanding individuals on the Chinese New Year Gala Committee which include many board members. Thank you to: Annie Louis Special Advisor Les Louis Audio Visual Expert Patricia Hyndman VIP & Ticket Coordinator Vhalle Hohn Centerpiece & Raffle Coordinator KaYee Wong Reception & Finance Administrator Chet Fong Application & Graphics Specialist John Dong Relations Expert Kevin Wong Director Tranel Chan Event Manager Danny Ng Gala Chair [2017] This year will celebrate the year of the Rooster. The Rooster is a symbol of honesty and physical and moral fortitude. They have a very keen sixth sense, and you get exactly what you see from them. They are very forthright and straightforward, excellent problem solvers and extremely hard workers. [Why Sponsor Sien Lok] This event offers many networking opportunities with businesses, government dignitaries, media, and key influencers in Chinese Canadian trade. Sponsors can take advantage of a highly cost effective means to host their own client appreciation event; this event offers unique elements that stray from Stampede and company Christmas parties. As an organization the promotional activities extend throughout Alberta, these programs benefit children, students, seniors, and the public. The best part is that Sien Lok is almost entirely volunteer driven. The Chinese New Year Gala is Sien Lok Society s biggest fundraiser of the year, and one of the greatest public outreach events where Canadian Chinese culture is shared with all Albertans. Sien Lok works hard on the cultural preservation and promotional projects in the city, but would not be successful without your support! Please consider helping us in our cultural sharing activities by becoming a sponsor of this memorable event. 2 P a g e
