Plan an Event Benefiting Children's Hospital of Wisconsin

Thank you for considering Children's Hospital of Wisconsin as a beneficiary of your fundraising activities! We appreciate your efforts to make a difference in the lives of the children we serve every day. 

Each year, third-party events raise more than $1 million and support our mission to care for children. Successful events take on many forms, but all involve careful planning. Our Special Events team works to provide third-party events with varying levels of support and will work directly with you to offer assistance as you hold your fundraiser or project. For additional fundraising ideas and tools, click here.

When you're ready to begin, start by completing this online proposal form or complete and mail the Third-Party Event Proposal Form. A member of our staff will follow up with you when we receive your proposal.

Thank you for your interest and support!

Will someone from Children's Hospital help me plan and run my event?
Special Events staff can provide support materials but cannot manage your fundraiser.

Can I use Children's Hospital's name and logo?
Once your fundraiser or project is approved and you have signed the Third Party Event Agreement, we will send you a logo to use for your promotional materials. Events staff must approve anything with our name and logo before it is printed or distributed. This includes websites and social media.
