Dear Friends,
Plans are well underway for the 2015 No Tie Dinner &
Dessert Party (NTDD) benefiting AIDS Services of Dallas
(ASD). Last year’s event drew more than 1,500 community
supporters and raised over $125,000 for the residents of AIDS
Services of Dallas. The 2015 event will be on Saturday,
March 28, 2015 at the Frontiers of Flight Museum.
As you may know, ASD provides affordable housing and
supportive services to 170 low-income and formerly homeless
men, women, children and families living with HIV/AIDS. For
our residents, housing is health care.
We ask you to consider joining us as we raise funds to
support the men, women and children living at AIDS Services
of Dallas. We must turn to people who care about those who
can’t always care for themselves. Many of the people we serve
come to us – literally -- with nothing but the clothes on their
backs. What you give helps provide a home, food and a
community that provides services and an understanding of life
with HIV/AIDS.
In the NTDD packet, you will find several opportunities for
participation along with information about the No Tie
Dinner & Dessert Party and information about
AIDS Services of Dallas.
I hope that you will consider supporting this very worthy cause.
Please visit www.notiedinner.org to learn more. If you have
any questions please contact Kristi Holman at 817-703-5680 or
[email protected].
Sincerely,
Don Maison
ASD President and CEO
2015 No Tie Dinner & Dessert Party
Chairs: David Nelson and Dennis Kershner
Honorary Chairs: Jody and Sterling O’Donnell
We are excited to announce the 10th Year of our No Tie Dinner &
Dessert Party! This annual event is a benefit to raise funds for AIDS
Services of Dallas (ASD), which provides housing and supportive
services for low-income and formerly homeless men, women, children
and families living with HIV/AIDS.
How does the event work?
On Saturday, March 28, groups of people across DFW will host social
gatherings – from backyard barbecues for as few as 10 people to formal
dinners for 30 or more. These socials can be casual or formal, large or
small, gourmet to potluck. In return for their host’s hospitality, guests
are asked to make a donation of $75 or more to ASD, of which ALL
proceeds go towards housing and supportive services for ASD clients.
Following your dinner, all hosts and guests are invited to Frontiers of
Flight Museum where more than 1,500 people will gather for an exciting
evening of entertainment, dancing, music, drinks and delightful desserts
donated by some of our community’s finest chefs. Fabulous items from
Dallas designers, restaurants and stores to luxury prizes and exotic getaways
will also be available for silent & live auction bidding that night!
Dinner hosts and sponsors will be invited to a VIP Sponsor and Host
Appreciation Party located in an intimate, exclusive setting – date and
location to be announced.
Join us in celebrating 10 years! What a fantastic way to make a
difference for the men, women and children living at AIDS Services
of Dallas.
