Description

We are looking for your support as an auction item donor for an event benefiting the Disaster Recovery International (DRI) Foundation. Our auction benefit will be held on Tuesday, March 5, 2024, at the Hilton New Orleans, Riverside located at 2 Poydras St, New Orleans, LA 70130, with over 500 guests from all over the country and world.

EVENT FORMAT

Proceeds will be used to give back to help others move forward with disaster recovery and relief efforts through volunteerism, granting, and education.

This black-tie cocktail reception Auction Benefit precedes our annual Awards Dinner recognizing disaster recovery experts around the globe. 500 professionals are expected to join us in promoting and supporting disaster relief and recovery efforts worldwide through volunteerism, education, and grants. 

PURPOSE OF BENEFIT

Volunteerism: We organize volunteer opportunities for business continuity professionals throughout the year and during the annual DRI International conference. 

Granting: Help often doesn't respond to the needs of disaster victims in a timely fashion. Our aim is to provide disaster relief to impacted communities.

Education: Volunteers use their skills to teach small to mid-sized business owners critical business continuity best practices to mitigate the effects of disasters and foster community preparedness. This education is essential to a community's economic recovery.
