Tips for Success

 

Writing a clear, thoughtful proposal can make a big difference in fulfilling corporate sponsorship requests. Here are some tips to help strengthen your application:

  • Align with the company's mission: Look into what causes or types of organizations they support to make sure they are a good fit. Ensure that the application reflects commonalities or overlap between the company and your organization.
  • Be specific and concise: Clearly outline the request and how it will support your work.
  • Show relevance and impact: Share how their support would make a difference in relation to your actual event.
  • Include recognition or engagement opportunities: Let them know how else they can get involved, such as an employee engagement or brand visibility at your event.
  • Think long-term: Many companies may also offer other workplace giving programs like employee matching or volunteer incentive programs. Make sure you're familiar with these options and are actively informing your supporters of the opportunities.
