Our commitment to providing excellent service extends far beyond celebrations and events. We created a community youth development program by partnering with the non-profit Developed 2 Overcome to teach communication and leadership skills to high school students across Northeast Florida (starting at 15 years old). In turn, jobs are available within our company to provide students with their first work experience and continued mentorship program.

We enjoy collaborating with small businesses and non-profits across Northeast Florida for their fundraiser events!

We grant donation requests once a quarter and will check based on availability and event size. If we are unable to donate services, you may receive a partial donation amount in exchange for an in-kind sponsor mention/package. Please allow at least 7-10 days for our team to review and advise approval.
Do you have to be a 501c3 to submit a request?
No. It will help approve your award but is not a requirement. We collaborate with companies that may provide marketing exposure instead of a tax-exempt donation receipt.
How often are the donation requests approved?
We approve one event per quarter. It is best to submit the request at least 3 months in advance. Your company or non-profit organization may only receive one donation request per a rolling 12 month period.
What information is evaluated to receive the donation?
We will review the mission of the event, the marketing, and if you have received a donation within 12 months of the previous request.
What type of events receive donations?
All events types such as Fundraisers, Festivals, and more!
What happens if the request is cancelled?
Once the donation is approved, it limits the availability of our staff for other clients. Therefore it is imperative that sufficient notice is received in advance. Please provide at least 30 days notice of a cancellation or postponement. Cancellations received less than 30 days, may provide an ineligible status for future donation requests.
Will AAYS offer cross-promotion of the event?
We can assist with cross promotion to our audience. It will be approved based on marketing materials and sponsorship details.
