Showcase your company, your generosity and even your creativity as part of this special celebration! All sponsors will be visible in the publicity and promotion of “35 Hours of Giving,” including display advertising, on the “35 Hours of Giving” website and in ICTV advertising. Plus, all sponsors will be included in a “Thank You” advertisement in the Irvine World News after the event.
Your donation of cash or merchandise may be tax deductible. Families Forward is a 501(c)3 charitable organization and will provide receipts and acknowledgement letters for your tax purposes.
Please consider one of these worthwhile ways to participate:
Sponsor and design a room – Your business may choose to furnish a bedroom, living room or kitchen and compete to win special recognition from the City. If you have another idea for a room, we encourage you to exercise your creativity!
Sponsor a room by making a cash donation – Your business can still be a big part of the celebration, even if you don’t compete in the design contest.
Sponsor the VIP premier of a specially produced Irvine documentary, “Inspired by Vision, Planned for Success” – This film, commemorating the 35th Anniversary of the City of Irvine, will be shown for the first time on December 8th. Your business can sponsor the premier and enjoy increased visibility to City VIPs and guests while also helping Families Forward. Sponsors will receive recognition at the end of the film, and also at the reception. The documentary will be shown on ICTV on a regular basis, and copies will be distributed to IUSD schools.
Donate items for the “35 Hours of Giving” opportunity drawing – Irvine residents who donate a household item to Families Forward will receive an entry into this drawing. Providing a prize is a great way to say “thank you” to these generous citizens.
