Eligible for Sponsorship
- Sponsorships are awarded to nonprofits for one-day fundraising events (in-person, virtual or a hybrid of both).
- Sponsorships are awarded to neighborhood or community groups for events that encourage resident engagement.
- Applicants must meet The Foundation's minimum eligibility requirements.
Not Eligible for Sponsorship
- Requests for conferences and workshops are generally considered through the Small Grants process, not through the event sponsorship process. Conferences, seminars, workshops, or other events focused on learning and training are not eligible for Sponsorship. Requests for assistance hosting learning events can be considered through the Small Grants process. Conferences or seminars are larger-scale learning events featuring multiple guest speakers and presentations. Workshops are educational sessions led by organization staff or guest speakers on a key topic.
- Walks, races and golf tournaments.
Award Amounts
- Sponsorship awards are available up to $2,000 per event.
Timing
- It is highly recommended that your organization submit a sponsorship application at least 60 days in advance of your event. Please note that the amount of sponsorship requests exceed the available funding every year. As a result, the application process typically closes by September.
