More Ways to Become a Sponsor

Student Scholarships (Variable)

Help train and inspire our youth to become leaders in the sustainability movement. This conference brings in students from around the state, many of which continue on to pursue careers in sustainability and environmental management and/or engineering. Prior to graduating these students take the skills and motivation from the conference and apply it to pushing their campuses to go green. Sponsors of student scholarships will be highlighted in the program, given all the benefits of the sponsorship level they give at and thanked at all student-oriented activities.

In-Kind Donations (Variable)

Donate items that will offset conference expenses. Examples include some food and beverage items (farm produce, snacks, beer, wine, non-alcoholic drinks), raffle prizes, and more. Contact the conference organizers for more information on specific needs for the event. If approved, companies who make in-kind donations will receive the sponsorship benefits equivalent to the value of the donation. For instance if the company donates $1,900 worth of produce, they would get the benefits of an exhibitor who paid $1,900 in cash.
