Corporate Sponsorship

Corporate Sponsorship is an opportunity to demonstrate your company's commitment to community. For more than 20 years, AIDS Athens has been partnering with local businesses through annual monetary support, event sponsorship, matching gifts, promotions, consumer donations and in-kind contributions.

Our corporate sponsors take a leadership roll in the fight against HIV/AIDS. And the benefits to your company's sponsorship are substantial. Particularly, in these difficult times when the threat of HIV/AIDS to our community is expanding, demonstrating your company's commitment to being a responsible member of the community is an invaluable tool of outreach to your customers who share the same concerns.

According to the 2007 Cone Cause Evolution Survey,

• 92% of consumers say they have a more positive image of a company that supports a cause they care about
• 83% of Americans think companies have a responsibility to help support nonprofits and social issues
• 72% of Americans wish their employers would do more to support a cause or social issue

Benefits of Corporate Sponsorship
