Scholarship
Fund
North East is committed to
providing scholarship dollars to needy families. This year for our summer camp
program alone, we awarded almost $4,000.00 in scholarship dollars. Scholarship
donations are granted to individuals who apply and demonstrate a need for financial
assistance. Sponsor benefits vary depending on the size of the donation.
Program
Sponsorship:
We are always interested in starting new programs. If you would like to donate
funds or equipment to a new and innovative program, we have a list of projects
we are waiting to introduce. We are currently seeking funds to start a photography
club, enhance our horticultural program and initiate a newsletter/yearbook committee.
Sponsors receive mention in our program brochure which is distributed to 1000
Westchester residents.
Event Sponsorships:
North East welcomes community sponsored events designed to raise funds and awareness for North East. We offer the following events at this time however, we are open to new ideas from sponsors.
• In New Castle, we join forces with New Castle Recreation to produce a 10K Run. Sponsors provide the seed money to conduct the event and the proceeds are awarded to North East. The event raises community interest, spirit, visibility for local businesses and provides a quality race for running enthusiasts.
• We conduct a golf outing in September at Mahopac Golf Club. Various sponsorship levels are available with benefits ranging from hole sponsorships to complimentary foursomes.
•
Our annual gala event, which is a dinner dance and silent auction, offers a
variety of sponsorship opportunities from journal ads to individual and corporate
packages. In addition to sponsorship, local businesses are solicited to donate
goods and services to our silent auction to enhance our fundraising capabilities.
Sponsors receive visibility at the event which may result in new business and
consumer loyalty.
Sponsorship of North East Public Relations Materials
We are seeking sponsors for our agency newsletter, promotional video and new
brochure. Attach your name to a well-known local charity that has a presence
in twelve communities. Sponsors are prominently displayed on the finished product.

In-kind donations offer budget
relief and the opportunity to enhance program content. Sponsorship benefits
are available for donations of various program supplies, food, paper goods,
printing and copying services, raffle prizes, photography services and equipment,
