FUNDRAISERS & CHARITY GALAS
Interactive Fundraiser Entertainment in Edmonton
Court Jester helps charity galas, school fundraisers and community events create a room people want to participate in. The all-request format combines live music, audience involvement and flexible event coordination without promising a one-size-fits-all fundraising result.
BUILT AROUND THE CAUSE
Keep supporters engaged in the event
A fundraiser must balance the cause, the program and the guest experience. Tim and Kelly work with organizers to position the show around dinner, speeches, auctions, draws and sponsor recognition.
Requests give guests a simple way to join the experience, while the musical direction changes with the room.
COMMUNITY PROOF
Experience with causes across Alberta
Court Jester’s documented fundraiser and community work includes New Heights School, STARS Air Ambulance, the Drayton Valley ALS Committee, Edmonton Food Bank, Alberta Diabetes Foundation, NorQuest College’s 1,000 Women initiative, Grande Cache Animal Society and other local organizations.
In October 2024, Court Jester documented another $2,000 donated to Edmonton Food Bank from tips collected over two Edmonton Riverboat weekends.
REPEAT-EVENT PROOF
Entertainment supporters ask to see again
Repeat appearances with community partners and fundraiser organizers provide stronger evidence than a generic promise of an “unforgettable” night. The Drayton Valley ALS Committee has welcomed Court Jester back and described the duo as a fan favourite.
Every event, audience and fundraising model is different. Court Jester does not guarantee a fundraising total; the team works with organizers to make the entertainment fit the event’s goals.
PLANNING DETAILS
Fundraiser FAQ
Can requests or tips support the cause?
They can be incorporated into some event formats. The approach should be agreed with the organizer in advance and aligned with the event’s program, payment process and fundraising rules.
Can the show work around auctions and speeches?
Yes. Tim and Kelly coordinate with the organizer so entertainment supports the evening rather than competing with auctions, draws, speeches or sponsor recognition.
Do you provide sound and lighting?
Yes. Court Jester can bring a complete production package or use venue equipment that meets the technical rider.
Can sponsors be acknowledged during the event?
Sponsor recognition can be discussed during planning and coordinated with the event host. The final run of show should identify the right moments and wording.
Do you guarantee fundraising results?
No. Every cause, audience and fundraising format is different. Court Jester shapes the entertainment around the event’s goals but does not promise a specific total.
Do you travel for charity events?
Travel is available seasonally. From November through March, Court Jester accepts bookings only within Greater Edmonton.
