I always get excited when I have the ability to utilize my skills for a good cause.  It is why I helped start the First Annual Jim Thorpe Burlesque Festival, which was originally created to benefit the business community in  Jim Thorpe and the Mauch Chunk Opera House.  It is why I am on the planning committee for the Annual Victorian Heritage Festival (raises money for Kemmerer Carriage House Restoration).  After all, it was my start in those endeavors that gave birth to Jim Thorpe Weddings & Events.  So, imagine how excited I was when an opportunity presented itself to become the Regional Event Planner for BC Sports & Sporting the Stars.  Now, I get to expand my business while helping charities raise money for their noble causes.

BC Sports is a highly reputable sports memorabilia company in business for decades with retail stores throughout the Philadelphia Area.  Their charity division is headed up by a company called Sporting the Stars.   Through this partnership, they are able to offer a  RISK FREE fundraising option to charities, both big and small, by consigning signed sports memorabilia for live or silent  auctions,  raffles, or to sell at their events.  The charity simply returns anything it doesn’t sell and pays a minimal price for the items it does , pocketing the difference for their cause.  No other company offers this type of product for charities and completely risk free  – it’s a win win! The products are certified authentic and of high quality. You can choose from a broad selection of signed memorabilia of local and national superstars!

As the Regional Event Planner, it is my job to bring this amazing fundraising option to local charities and organizations, whether it be a small community looking to raise money for a family in need or an entire organization looking to raise large capital.  No charity is too big or too small!  You can select from  1  to 20 or more items to raffle.  For larger events, we can even make arrangements for a sports star to be present (stars fee and certain conditions  apply).   As the regional event planner I can connect and coordinate the event with you.  I’m excited at the possibilities and creative ideas we can utilize  to make your fundraising event a huge success! 

While I represent the Allentown/Lehigh Valley/Carbon County area, I am not limited in where I can make the connections. That means, any one of my friends, families, and associates across the United States can contact me.  BC Sports has connections with all major sports and teams throughout the United States.

For more details, please do not hesitate to contact me at 484-629-5070 or via my contact page .  You can also view a pdf flyer about the program here.  If you know of anyone that is looking for a risk free way to raise some money for their charitable cause, please spread the word and pass my information on.

 A Cost Saving Alternative without Sacrificing Elegance

 Through my experience as a wedding planner , and particularly since beginning the work I do with the Mauch Chunk Ballroom,  a theme that seems to be a common thread with all the couples I meet is that they want a beautiful wedding (who doesn’t) but as times are tough and [...]

This year’s expo will be the second one that I have put togehter and planned. When I formed Jim Thorpe Weddings & Events, I did so out of a need I thought was being unfilled within the local Jim Thorpe area.  The Jim Thorpe Wedding Expoâ„¢ was a natural progression from creating the business, to [...]
