About Jess Frank, Founder of Wheelhouse Events
Founded in 2016 by Jess Frank, Wheelhouse Events was born out of a personal passion for organized events, nonprofit work, and cause-driven storytelling. With over 20 years of industry experience, spanning health-based nonprofits, experiential agencies, and, most meaningfully, as a participant in some of the country’s largest peer-to-peer and hospitality fundraising events, Jess has built a trusted team of consultants, contractors, and freelancers who share her commitment to excellence.
When Jess isn’t getting her hands (very) dirty at events, you’ll find her with her two spirited daughters and their Golden Retriever, Cooper, fueled by endless coffee and 90s alternative playlists.
What We Believe:
Mission First – Your cause deserves more than a cookie-cutter event.
Who We Work With:
Nonprofits planning large-scale galas and endurance events.
Mission-driven teams ready to increase fundraising without the overwhelm.
Agencies and partners seeking strategic event production support.
Fun Facts:
We love a well-organized spreadsheet almost as much as a heartfelt donor speech.
Jessica loves music and is the lead singer of Whiskey & Sugar.
We believe fundraising can be joyful, and we’re here to help make it happen.
