Sponsorships

We invite all members to participate in our Sponsorship Campaign. Past and current sponsors include O'Dell Printing who printed our brochures at no charge and John Mackie who has donated the attorney fees for the filing for our nonprofit status.

The following is a partial list of items that future sponsors may wish to underwrite for the SCCG:
  • Pay for SCCG's post office box for a year
  • Cover postage for the year's membership directory mailing
  • Donate a site for an upcoming event
  • Defray the costs of a speaker fee for an upcoming event
  • Or choose an amount and we'll apply it to our most pressing need
Sponsors will receive recognition in the Kudos section of our newsletter, a display ad thanking them for their help, and a free ad in the newsletter, along with our sincere gratitude.

Yet another way to financially support the Culinary Guild would be to advertise your business in our monthly newsletter (three months for $30).

Thank you in advance for your generosity and support.
