Corporate Sponsorships

Support the Community. Connect Your Business.

Corporate sponsorship gives businesses an opportunity to support meaningful community work while building visibility and relationships with the people SSA serves.

Spokane Slavic Association works with businesses of different sizes to develop sponsorship opportunities connected with programs, events, community communications, and organization-wide initiatives.

Sponsorship revenue helps SSA expand opportunities while reducing dependence on any single funding source.

Organization-Wide Sponsorship

Businesses interested in a broader relationship with SSA may explore annual or organization-wide sponsorship.

Customized sponsorship packages may be developed based on:

  • Sponsorship amount
  • Business goals
  • Length of partnership
  • Programs of interest
  • Available visibility opportunities
  • Community relevance

In-Kind Sponsorship

Financial support is not the only way businesses can contribute.

SSA may also accept useful goods or professional services when they match a current organizational or program need.

Examples may include:

The strongest sponsorship relationships can grow beyond financial support into long-term community collaboration.

Sponsorship & Charitable Giving

Sponsorships and charitable donations are not always treated the same way for tax purposes.

SSA is a federally recognized 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. When a sponsor receives substantial advertising, promotional benefits, goods, or services in return for payment, the tax treatment may differ from a charitable contribution.

SSA will structure and document sponsorship arrangements appropriately.

Businesses should consult their own tax or financial professionals regarding their specific circumstances.
