A place where hope grows.

Authentic helped design the inaugural fundraising campaign for Faith’s Lodge Gala which took place at the Marriott City Center Hotel in Minneapolis, Minnesota on June 3, 2006 to tell the world about Faith’s Lodge, a place where hope grows. Faith’s Lodge supports parents and families facing the loss or medically-complex condition of a child in a peaceful environment to reflect on the past, renew strength for the present and build hope for the future.

The campaign drew nearly 1,000 people to this first-time event netting more than a quarter million in donations and ongoing commitments of volunteer support. The fundraiser aided the construction of the retreat center on 80 acres of land near Webster, Wisconsin, which opened in July 2007 to create a safe, healing place for families during times of personal crisis.

Communications included direct mail, event signage and online landing pages.
