Marketing & Communications
We’re writers. We're creative thinkers. We're the Levé brand police.
The goal of our committee is to raise awareness of and support for Levé and, through that, for our nonprofit partners, as well as to build and maintain the integrity of Levé’s brand. We do this by driving and overseeing all of our internal and external communication needs including marketing, messaging, strategic planning, media relations, social media, partnership building, the website, collateral development, design, internal trainings and award submissions. Let’s put it this way, we help our organization represent Levé effectively and authentically in all interactions and communications, and if it’s out there for public consumption, we probably had our hands all over it.

Auction
Going Once...Going Twice...SOLD!!
The Leve Silent Auction was founded a short time after the first Charity Ball was held and is every bit as unique as Leve itself. We don't want to run just any old auction so the team scours the city looking for incredible items from local Portland favorites-Wine Tasting at Noble Rot, Blazer tickets, private Pilates lessons, even a Widmer Snowboard have been graciously donated in the past. We've since added a raffle to our roster and unlike most raffles...you actually get to pick the item your ticket goes to. In the past five years the Leve Silent Auction & Raffle have raised close to $17,000 which goes directly to our chosen non-profit. It's a lovely thought that at our event there's always more than one way to donate, and you can end up taking home some pretty cool items.
We are forever grateful to our in-kind donors...care to be one of them?

Logistics
The Logistics Committee is made up of “detail people”.
Our slogan is Live, Love, Organize. Our committee exists to assist Levé in the planning of events by overseeing all logistical aspects, including working closely with venue, entertainment contacts, and sub-committees chairs and acts as the on-site, day-of-event points of contact. This is where the magic happens.
