Where can you find sponsorship options?

Those seeking sponsorships for an event or school-related function can ask local businesses, prominent individuals within the community, or local and national organizations for funding. Acquire sponsorships by appealing to local media outlets, newspapers, radio stations and television broadcasts to build awareness of the program.

Attract sponsorships by creating a clear and concise letter or media kit explaining the purpose of the sponsorship. Sponsors often prefer to know how their money is spent, the organization it helps, and the type of advertising or recognition gained by contributing to the cause. Some organizations provide the potential sponsors with tax identification numbers to appeal to more businesses seeking tax write-offs.
