Mi Casa hosts three annual fundraising events:
-
Be Anything Luncheon & Silent Auction
-
Spirit of Success Luncheon in Pueblo
-
Path to Prosperity Breakfast
The theme of the Be Anything Luncheon & Silent Auction is aspiring to “be anything” you dream to be. In keeping with that theme, the luncheon includes a unique “Dream Jobs” silent auction for a chance to experience jobs many of us dreamed of as young people - a TV reporter for a day, a racecar driver for a day, zookeeper for a day, radio DJ for a day, and many more.
The Spirit of Success Luncheon, held in Pueblo, Colorado, celebrates the creation of new opportunities through self-employment and business ownership in Southern Colorado. Funds raised at this luncheon will support Mi Casa’s business development training programs in Southern Colorado.
The Path to Prosperity Breakfast is a celebration of Mi Casa’s success in empowering Latino families to achieve their academic, professional, and entrepreneurial potential. There is no ticket cost to attend, however, during the program guests will be invited to support Mi Casa by making a personal donation.
All proceeds from Mi Casa’s events support our mission to advance the economic success of Latino families.

Donate a “Dream Job” for the Silent Auction: Mi Casa is seeking individuals who hold jobs that would be considered interesting, exciting or exotic by most people. Mi Casa's goal with the dream jobs silent auction is to give people the chance to experience a profession that they might have dreamed about or aspired to as a child (i.e. a zookeeper, TV anchor, firefighter, astronaut, racecar driver, pilot, actor, etc.). If you have a dream job and are willing to spend four to five hours with the highest bidder showing them the ropes of your profession, let us know! To donate a dream job, contact Cheryl at cbalchunas@MiCasaResourceCenter.org or 303-539-5609.
Join an Event Planning Committee: Mi Casa is recruiting volunteers to serve on our 2011 event planning committees for our three flagship events described above. Members of event planning committees support the event by helping to promote the event in the community (i.e. word of mouth, using their personal/professional networks and social media relationships, etc.), identifying and soliciting new potential sponsors, table captains, dream job donors, event guests, and supporting the event as a sponsor or table captain.
Attend the Event: Reserve your seat today! Tickets for the 2011 Be Anything Luncheon are available for $50 each. Tickets for the 2011 Spirit of Success Luncheon are $35 each (a portion of the ticket cost for both luncheons is tax deductible). There is no ticket cost to attend the Path to Prosperity Breakfast, although guests will be asked to support Mi Casa with a donation.
Make a Donation: If you are not able to attend a Mi Casa event in 2011, consider making a financial gift to support Mi Casa’s mission economic success for Latino and low-income families. Donations of all amounts are welcome and deeply appreciated. Click here to make a donation.
