Address your targeted audience and stretch promotion dollars

Is your business looking for an event to sponsor?  Would you like to advertise business-to-business or at community events?  If you'd like to get your name out to the community of Sun Prairie and beyond and, help promote community activities, check the opportunities below.  Levels of sponsorship vary with each program/event and targeted audiences as well. 

As a non-profit organization, the Chamber relies on its members for sponsorship of the quality programs provided to members.  Sponsors not only aid in covering program costs, but also benefit the sponsor's business by providing a marketing avenue for the business.

Sponsor opportunities vary from direct financial contributions to donation of advertising, service and/or the donation of an item(s).  Some programs/events have a limited number of sponsors or other requirements.

The Chamber recognizes the importance of sponsors and promotes/recognizes each sponsor. Various promotion of sponsors include recognition in the Chamber newsletter, website, event signage, advertising and more. 

A complete brochure of sponsorship opportunities is available.  

Chamber Foundation: The Sun Prairie Chamber Foundation, Inc., established in 1997, is a resource for tax deductible contributions that support the community. Projects sponsored by contributions are Corn Fest, Leadership Sun Prairie, and Scholarships.
