What Are Sponsors?
Our sponsors are committed community-focused corporate, government, and private sector charitable partners who want to ensure that invention and entrepreneurship education impacts everyone, from the underserved to rural to urban K-8 students. Sponsors contribute funding, in-kind resources, products, services, mentors, judges, connections, and many other important elements to power our programs and participation.
Specifically, our sponsors help us by donating:
- Operating Funds. Every little bit helps. We have sponsor packages for presence at our main events, such as the Washington Invention Convention, as well as for full year-round visibility.
- Employee Engagement: We are seeking mentors and judges for our programs — people who can interact with and inspire our kids. They can be engineers, marketers, IP attorneys, police, emergency medical technicians….just about anyone. We provide training and support to help your people make an impact
- Outreach: We are asking you to help us find other entities who can join our coalition and help make us successful. 70% of our fundraising work is getting that first meeting with a CMO or decision maker – can you help us?
