Fun Raising Promotional Bash

Wednesday, July 15 · 6:00 pm
Salt Lake City · Festivals

We’re bringing together friends, supporters, and community builders to celebrate our continued fundraising effort for Fun Raising, a new unscripted, reality style TV series focused on nonprofits. Enjoy refreshments and delicious donuts from The Other Side Donuts while you meet great people and learn more about the show and its mission. ​What is Fun Raising? ​Nonprofits are the hidden backbone and safety net of our country. They shelter the homeless, feed the hungry, champion those in need, support the arts, and protect our air, water, and wild places. ​Fun Raising was conceived from a desire to highlight the amazing people who see a problem in the world and make it their mission to solve it. The series is designed to bring visibility, growth, and support to these organizations by telling their stories in an engaging, reality style format, giving viewers a behind the scenes look at nonprofit leaders, their communities, and concrete ways to get involved. ​Why we’re gathering ​This promotional bash is both a celebration and a working step toward making the Fun Raising series real. By coming together, we aim to: ​Share the vision and concept behind the Fun Raising TV show. ​Build momentum and financial support to move the series into full production. ​Connect people who care about nonprofits, storytelling, and community impact. ​Have a genuinely fun evening that reflects what the show is all about. ​There is no stuffy gala program here. Just a relaxed environment, simple framing about the show, and lots of time to talk, connect, and ask questions. ​What to expect ​A casual, welcoming gathering at the Arch Nexus building, known for its sustainable, community oriented design. ​Opportunities to meet the people behind Fun Raising and hear how the series will spotlight real nonprofit work. ​Light refreshments including doughnuts from The Other Side Donuts, a local favorite with a mission driven story of its own. ​Easy ways to support the project (learn about backing options, share with your network, or plug in other partners). ​Come hang with us, bring a friend, and be part of launching a show that is all about making doing good more visible and more fun. ​About Arch Nexus: ​Arch Nexus is one of the greenest office buildings in the Intermountain West, a beautifully remodeled headquarters on Parleys Way that pairs contemporary design with deep sustainability. The building has earned multiple top‑tier green certifications, including LEED Platinum and Living Future Petal Certification, recognizing its leadership in energy efficiency, water reuse, and regenerative design.
