The more event sponsorships you obtain, the more event dollars go to your cause.

Fundraising events offer many benefits to nonprofits, including a chance to engage donors, promote awareness for your cause and have fun. But the #1 reason we have events? To raise money. That means netting as much revenue as you can while trimming expenses.

Securing event sponsorships is a practical way to do both.

In this handbook, we’ll explain the nuts and bolts of all you need to succeed, and the key is this: Focus on what potential sponsors want.
