Name For Charity Music Event To Raise Money

Posted by Anonymous on 6/4/2008 at 10:06 PM ET 500 Points
A number of successful expatriates have banded together to raise money for a selected charity in their native homeland where they no longer live but still hold close to their hearts. They will pick one charity from their homeland each year and gather 1000 expats and hold a high end live music act fundraiser to raise money. Think it of a bunch of people who left their home state years ago, became successful in the biz world and now want to band together to give back to a needy group in the land they left - but still love. Need a name for the event that will have sustainability and not change year to year.

    Thanks so far - some good ones but they feel a little soft and fluffy ...this is not like a FarmAid or Tsunami event that is a 'dire' need to disaster relief - its for charities back in the home state like Children's cancer clinics, burn units, new medical equipment or even new skating parks for kids. So, the tone should feel positive, celebratory and light. This group of expats will pick a different charity each year and the event will be a 'happy celebration of music' with donations going toward the chosen cause.

    Would rather the name feel like "The Great Big Give" or "Pay in Forward" - but that isn't it.

    Thanks so far - keep em coming.

    so many such charity events simply go bust.... not for profit sometime demands profitable strategies....the expats if any good in business should treat this big enough so after 10 years becomes a brand...put expert help and take it seriously...hand holding naming is like pulling the plug.

    free or cheap help is available but naming is too serious and these days a real make or break issue of today.

    look in any direction and most names are disaster in any industry because it felt like agood idea at that time and moment, years ahead now a libility simply sucks the project down

    net is the best place, look for the best source and shine

    OK, there's an elephant in the room and nobody has yet asked the question...

    What is this country that is the native homeland for all these now-sucessful expatriates?

    The reason I have to ask the question is that this could be a key element in the name-creation process. Are you shy to reveal it for some reason? Why?
