For nonprofits, foundations & associations
A podium for the gala, the board meeting and the press event.
A nonprofit's podium goes to the annual gala, the volunteer recognition dinner, the board meeting, the press conference and the memorial, and it usually has to do all of that on a budget the board approved last spring. The lecterns on this page run from acrylic and metal truss models under $500 to solid hardwood for the foundation that hosts a formal dinner. Most take the organization's logo on the front panel.
What nonprofits, foundations and associations order most:
- The Eclipse and the clear open-back acrylic lecterns for board rooms and press events
- The metal truss lecterns and the Aristocrat 600 for organizations on a tight budget
- The K-2 aluminum podium for galas and stage events
- Wood-with-acrylic pulpits like the 704 Proclaimer and the 777 Exhorter for faith-based organizations
Every order ships free in the lower 48. Send your logo as a vector file and we'll apply it and send a proof before production. Send your tax-exempt certificate with the order and we apply it.

Before you order
Common questions
What podium do nonprofits usually order?
It depends on the budget and the room. Organizations that mostly hold board meetings and press events go with an acrylic lectern like the Eclipse or the clear open-back model. Those that host an annual gala usually want a hardwood lectern or the K-2 aluminum podium that photographs well on stage.
Do you have podiums under $500?
Yes. The Economy acrylic lectern, the metal truss pedestal lectern and the Aristocrat 600 are all under $500, and there's a full collection of them.
Can you apply our organization's logo?
Yes. Send it as a vector file (.eps, .ai or .pdf) and we'll apply it to the front panel and send a proof before production.
Can a nonprofit buy tax-exempt?
Yes. Send your exemption certificate with the order and we apply it. We also accept purchase orders if your finance office needs a written quote first.
We need it for a gala at a hotel. Can it ship there?
Yes. Shipping is free in the lower 48 to whatever address you give us, including a venue. Tell us the event date and we'll confirm the ship date works before you order.
