Auto Show Charity Spectacular Presented by 1
About the Event About the Cause The annual Auto Show Charity Spectacular continues to be one of the hottest winter events in West Michigan. This year, the Charity Spectacular is celebrating its 20th anniversary and will be the night to remember in 2018. A new atmosphere is in store that will give attendees more opportunities to mingle while enjoying a spectacular evening that includes a delicious strolling dinner, entertainment, and fun while still having the opportunity to view and experience more than 300 new cars, trucks and SUVs on display. While there are more than 5,000 hospitals in America, only about 250 offer care exclusively for children. Many hospitals can treat diseases and conditions in kids, but a children s hospital treats the whole child. To our community, Helen DeVos Children s Hospital is a vital resource, providing exceptional care to every child. Philanthropy helps make it possible for Helen DeVos Children s Hospital to launch, expand and sustain important programs and services. Pediatric care requires specialized knowledge, highly trained staff and unique medical equipment, which are all very costly. Auto Show Charity Spectacular VIP Sponsorship levels also include access to a pre-event reception held within the famous Million Dollar Motorway that includes appetizers and a complimentary bar. Cocktail attire is the preferred dress for the evening. 2 Helen DeVos Children s Hospital Helen DeVos Children s Hospital requires millions in donations each year to sustain and grow existing programs and services needed by our patients and their families. By supporting the Auto Show Charity Spectacular, you are directly impacting these programs and services while helping ensure children in West Michigan and beyond are able to access world-class care, regardless of their ability to pay. Thank you for considering a sponsorship. You are making it possible for Helen DeVos Children s Hospital to save kids lives, provide hope and comfort and help keep children safe and healthy. This year, the Auto Show Charity Spectacular will be held in the Grand Gallery at DeVos Place right between the Million Dollar Motorway and the Exhibit Halls featuring the year s hottest new vehicles. Attendees can view all the vehicles in the Auto Show, as well as the Million Dollar Motorway, but they will have the added value of a single location where the food, drinks, entertainment, and networking can take place throughout the evening. 3
