Sponsorship Strategies for Today’s Market | May 21, 2015
Let’s face it, funding your organization is becoming more and more of a challenge. Becoming enterprising (see above) is one option to help finance your social mission. Sponsorship is another area non-profits are exploring. But while mainstream businesses are taking corporate social responsibility more seriously, often they are looking for more than just logo recognition.
Chrystal Robert-Macey is an expert in the area of sponsorship. She understands the sponsorship experience from both sides and can help guide you on how to meet the needs and expectations of sponsors while at the same time meeting your needs.
