Why Should You Sponsor?

You don't want to miss the opportunity to sponsor the 23rd annual Garden of Roses Fashion Show, which will be held on Saturday, March 24, 2018 at our new venue, The Bowden Events & Weddings, located at 1775 Keller Parkway.

We are aware that many companies plan their community commitments as part of their annual budget and we hope that you will extend your support for this charitable event in your upcoming plans. A few highlights to consider as you make your decision:
  • 2018 will be our inaugural fundraiser at The Bowden, which is especially significant due to the passing of its founder, philanthropist and long-time member of the Club, Linda Bowden
  • 500+ attendees are anticipated at the 2018 fundraiser
  • 250+ members of the Greater Keller Women’s Club volunteer their time and resources to the annual fundraiser and throughout the year to area non-profit organizations
  • 10,000 – 12,000 volunteer hours annually are typically given by our members, so we are fully vested in supporting the community and our sponsors
  • $75,000 in proceeds was raised from the 2017 Garden of Roses fundraiser
  • $36,000 in scholarships to 12 KISD graduating seniors from the 4 KISD high schools
  • $39,000 in grants to 11 Northeast Tarrant County charities
  • $1.25 million in grants to local non-profit organizations and scholarships to KISD seniors has been collectively donated since 1996
  • 98% of our annual fundraiser’s net revenue is typically distributed to our beneficiaries
  • Media Sponsor is again the Ft. Worth Star-Telegram with ad coverage to include the Star-Telegram NE, Indulge Magazine, K-Magazine and Keller Citizen
  • Social media marketing campaign to include the GKWC website, Blog, Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram accounts
  • 500+ programs with sponsor ads are distributed at the event
  • GKWC Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, therefore your sponsorship is tax-deductible
