How to Host a Dip and Donate Party

This post has been sponsored by Nonni’s. I received product and compensation, but all opinions are my own.

For Spring, I wanted to share some inspiration for a very important party with a purpose: A Dip and Donate Party. It’s a great way to join the fight against childhood cancer with Nonni’s Limone Biscotti in partnership with Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation. You might be wondering what a Dip and Donate party is. It’s easy and fun! Invite guests over for some refreshing drinks and light bites, then ask your guests to donate to Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation in lieu of a hostess gift. It’s really a win-win in every way!

Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF) is a non-profit organization that funds impactful research to aid in the cure of childhood cancer. Nonni’s is celebrating another year of donations to such a worthy cause. This partnership is highlighted with ALSF branding on the Limone flavor of Nonni’s biscotti, which is perfect for a lemonade stand themed dip and donate party!

If you are not familiar with biscotti, it’s a crunchy cookie, usually with a thin layer of icing or chocolate. It is traditionally intended to be “dipped” in your drink. Hence, “Dip and Donate.” Nonni’s is the best store bought biscotti, available in several different varieties. They are flavorful, crunchy and sweet, made from real eggs, butter and sugar. The limone flavor is a lemon cookie layered with white icing. Each box contains eight individually wrapped biscotti, around 110 calories each.

6 Easy Steps for Hosting Your Own Dip and Donate Party:

1. Invite guests into your home on a beautiful Spring day.

2. Create a fundraiser page as part of Nonni’s Dip and Donate Campaign page. Upon invitation, ask them to make a small donation to Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation in lieu of a hostess gift. You can collect the funds and donate them on behalf of your friends or send them a direct link to your fundraiser page.
3. Serve lemonade and Nonni’s Limone Biscotti. Unwrap each biscotti and display them on a snack board for a beautifully, elevated look.
4. Add flowers, lemons, and a cute lemonade stand sign for decor.
5. Don’t forget the plates, napkins and cups. When serving biscotti, I recommend a shorter, wider cup for your guests to use for dipping!
6. If you collected donations, after your event, log on to the Nonni’s Dip and Donate Campaign page or your personal fundraiser page on Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation’s website to donate the collected funds.

Want to help the cause even more? For every social post that tags @NonnisFoods, @AlexsLemonade and #DipandDonate between now and Dec. 31, 2020, Nonni’s will donate $1 per social share to Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation. I encourage you to host your very own Dip and Donate party this season, but if you can’t and you’d still like to donate, you can do so on my fundraiser page here.
