Thank you for your interest in sponsoring a local Sparrow Project for this school year. Your sponsorship underwrites the adoption costs of one particular child in medical need (Sparrow) to a group of heroic kids (Sparrow Club) who make it their cause to do a minimum of 256 hours of community service and raise support for their child (Sparrow Project).
We often hear the phrase “return on investment” when it comes to sponsorship of a Sparrow Project—even though most of our businesses do not donate just for that reason. It is a wonderful cause-related marketing venue and could easily be justified as an advertising expense as well as a corporate donation. Quite simply, a Sparrow Project sponsorship is great business!
Branding: your corporate logo is placed on the Sparrow Check service vouchers—associating your business with the heroic efforts of many kids serving hundreds of hours in your community. Through a Sparrow Project, when one child is helped a whole community is helped--and kids live's and their culture is changed.
Networking: your business website is linked to your adopted Sparrow’s webpage on this website. Anyone browsing your Sparrow Project can click-through to your corporate website to learn more about their business sponsor.
Advertising: your business is recognized at school assemblies, service projects and annual Sparrow Club events as well as mention in the media and public service announcements.
Community Relations: a minimum of 256 hours of heartfelt community service is leveraged by your donation. In a very grassroots way, parents in your community are ennobled and grateful for investment into the lives of their kids by challenging them with your Sparrow Cash sponsorship.
Employee Relations: your staff members are invited to attend the Sparrow Adoption Assembly and/or get closely involved with the project—which greatly uplifts their morale. Your employees are encouraged to help stage community service projects and volunteer with the club.
Project Presentation: students commit to thanking and recognizing their sponsors at the end of their Sparrow Project. Business personnel are invited to observe and/or participate in all assemblies and events.
