Creating Community Sponsorships/Partnerships

Events that can positively impact ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ (ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ) and its communities may be eligible for sponsorship/partnership with the university. To ensure opportunities strongly align with ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ’s mission, the university has established a set of guidelines and a Sponsorship Request Form. Please note that any new request for sponsorship and/or funding from ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ must be completed at least 90 days before the event so that we can adequately evaluate the opportunity.

  • Aligns with the ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ Mission Statement · Aligns with an ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ Strategic Goal or Core Value
  • Encourages collaboration, partnerships, community development, government relations, equity and inclusion, and outreach
  • Meets organizational positioning and current focus areas
  • May increase awareness, name recognition, and student enrollment

  • Increases external support, stewards current donors, cultivates new sources of future philanthropic support, and supports funders’ initiatives

  2. Fill out and finalize a Sponsorship Request Form (Deadlines: January 1st, April 1st, July 1st, and October 1st)

ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ Event/Sponsorship Selection Process

The process to approve an event or sponsorship can be simple, as long as the opportunity aligns with ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ’s mission, a strategic goal, or a core value.

All sponsorship requests undergo a formal review process by the ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ Sponsorship Committee and the Vice President for Diversity, Inclusion, and Community Engagement before advancing to the Board of Trustees for approval during full board meetings. 

As a publicly supported academic institution, ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ does not support political action committees, ballot initiatives, or political campaigns.
