Annual Clifton Homes Tour Preparation Underway
Homes Tour for Charity Offers Sponsorship Opportunities for Local Businesses
It’s an annual homes tour that really brings it home. The Clifton Community Woman’s Club (CCWC) presents the 44th Annual Clifton Homes Tour and Silent Auction on Thursday, May 19, 2016 from 9:30 AM- 4:00 PM. The event draws approximately 500 visitors, offers a guided tour of 4 beautiful Clifton homes, and typically raises about $25,000 to benefit local scholarships, food banks, shelters, and charities through the Club’s 501(c)(3) Charitable Trust.
The participation of local businesses is a major part of the Homes Tour’s success. By being a sponsor, purchasing advertising space in the ticket book, or donating items to the silent auction, local business owners introduce their companies to tour attendees and make a meaningful impact on this day of charitable giving. The Homes Tour Ticket Book is a 5 x 8 inch booklet containing information about the homes on the Tour, as well as the Silent Auction held at Clifton Presbyterian Church. It also features sponsors and other ads for local businesses and services. Sponsors receive a full-page ad in the Ticket Book, as well as an internet presence on the CCWC website, a link to the sponsor’s website, an invitation to the Homes Tour Reception, recognition in publicity and at the Tour homes, and two complimentary tickets. Sponsorship levels begin at $175, and individual advertisements begin at just $35. Hurry! The deadline is March 1 for sponsorships and advertisements, and May 1 for Silent Auction items. For sponsorship and advertising questions, please contact Betty Trombetta, BettyTrombetta020813@gmail.com. For Silent Auction questions, please contact Daniele Robbins, robbinsdaniele@yahoo.com or Trish Mandes, trishmandes@cox.net.
Ticket sales begin in April at local businesses and through the CCWC website at www.cliftoncwc.org.
