FILO and Canvas Health have partnered to help manage three different special events over the summer and fall of 2017: the Annual Canvas Health Golf Classic, Stomp out Suicide 5k and the Valley Vine and Harvest Throwdown.
Canvas Health is a non-profit organization that is dedicated to bringing hope, healing and recovery to people’s lives. They achieve this by helping children, adolescents, adults and families who struggle with mental health, chemical health and domestic and sexual abuse. Canvas Health also operates Minnesota’s suicide prevention phone and text lines. FILO is so excited to be working with such a wonderful organization to put on these events that will help bring awareness and raise funds to support their cause.
The first event, the Annual Canvas Health Golf Classic, will be held on Monday, July 24th, 2017 at the beautiful Dellwood Country Club. Golfers from around the Twin Cities will golf for a wonderful cause and enjoy an eventful evening that includes dinner, a live and silent auction, as well as the opportunity to win raffle prizes.
The second event that FILO will be helping with is the Stomp Out Suicide 5k on Saturday, August 19th, 2017 in Wyoming, MN. Canvas Health has teamed up with Stomp Out Suicide, to carry on its mission through a wonderful 5k walk/run. The Stomp out Suicide 5k event has grown from a small community event to one that now attracts nearly 2,000 people from all around the metro.
Lastly, each fall, Canvas Health puts on the Valley Vine and Harvest Throwdown, which is a competitive food and wine event featuring local chefs. The event will be at Lake Elmo Inn Event Center on Sunday, October 8th, 2017. The Chef’s each prepare their signature dishes for guests to experience with fine wine and then vote for their top choice. The winner of the event receives the honor of Top Chef of the Valley. Other activities like a silent and live auction will be used to help raise funds for Canvas Health.
Each of these events will raise funds that go towards supporting a wide range of services helping children, adolescents, adults and families who struggle with mental and chemical health issues, violence, and sexual abuse.
FILO’s responsibilities will consist of assisting with the pre-production phase and the execution of the event, which includes logistics, securing vendors, entertainment, assisting with sponsorship sales, being an onsite liaison and managing the setup and teardown of each event.
We are very excited about this new partnership with Canvas Health and are looking towards building a great future together!
