Mission Sponsorship
Becoming a Mission Sponsor is an easy way for your organization to reach out to the community through our effective and trusted programs. Besides the direct result your monetary donations provide, Corporate Sponsors can take advantage of “Employee Engagement”—the most important benefit of Mission sponsorship—the encouragement and education that comes only with personal interaction. Your corporate sponsorship includes a variety of opportunities for your staff to experience helping others one-on-one.
All sponsors receive the Communication Package, which includes:
- Recognition in The Missionary newsletter (circ. 60,000);
- Exclusive listing and link on the Mission website.
- Mention in the Annual Report.
- Corporate Sponsors receive a floor-standing banner with your company logo to be displayed at the sponsored event.
A Social Media Outreach Package is also a benefit of corporate sponsorship of $5,000 or more; we will recognize your company through a press release and on our social media platforms of 20,000+ friends.
