Plan an Event
Thank you for thinking of STARS and supporting us by hosting a fundraising event. Our donors make everything we do possible.
Event Toolkit
We’ve put together a few resources to help your event be as successful as possible.
We want your event to be successful!
Event poster template
We’ve created an easy-to-update STARS-branded event poster. It is a Microsoft Word document, sized to an 11″ x 17″ sheet of paper. You can easily edit your event details, save the poster, print it off and post it where you know it’ll draw the most attention!

In Support of STARS
We’ve created a useful identifier that you can add to your event promotion poster. This box maintains the strength and visibility of our brand while allowing you the freedom to create a unique poster to promote your event.
