Sponsorship Help

Help Gain Sponsorships for PAS
Connect us to potential generous businesses or
help solicit future sponsors or prizes
We have two big events coming up that need sponsorships from businesses: the 5K and the spring musical.
The 5K has sponsorships ranging from $250 - $3,500. Sponsors get their logo on the race t-shirt and potentially other perks such as providing their swag for the race bags and having a table presence at the race to promote their business. We also need prizes donated for the race -- gift certificates, free passes, tickets, products, etc.
The musical has program sponsorships ranging from $100 - $1500. Sponsors (and parents) can create an ad for the program. The bigger the sponsorship, the bigger and more prominent the ad.
We also need help contacting businesses and asking if they are interested in becoming a sponsor. If you can recommend or solicit any businesses, please let us know by submitting the sponsorship form!
