Our Track Record

Effective Event Management has proven success with non-profit organizations. We have taken internally organized events whose futures were questionable, and turned them around. Net revenues have been drastically increased even after the addition of a professional event management fee that had never been incurred before.

Effective Events' involvement with The London Drugs 10K saw the event's net revenue increase dramatically from $13,000 in 1993, to $114,000 in 1997. The Pacific Spirit Run went from a $5,000 deficit in 1992 to net revenue of over $50,000 in 1997. The Nike Women's 8K netted $70,000 for breast cancer research through the BC Cancer Foundation the first time Effective Events put it on.
