SPONSORSHIP SUPPORT & BENEFITS
This platform offers a unique and hopefully attractive opportunity for you to interact with participants through your sponsorship. We understand that for this to work, there needs to be a mutual benefit between your organization and our team, and we want to make that happen.
22 29 Is a Non-Profit Organization
A nonprofit corporation is a corporation formed, often to carry out a charitable, educational, or scientific purpose. In this case, Team 22 29 helps youth located along the Colorado Front Range travel to the mountains to practice, compete and document winter sports. Nonprofit’s don’t pay federal or state income taxes on profits it makes from activities in which it engages to carry out its goals. This is because the IRS and state tax agencies believe that the benefits the public derives from these organizations' activities entitle them to a special tax-exempt status.
Also, a nonprofit is permitted to raise funds by receiving public and private grant money and donations from individuals and companies. And the tax laws encourage people and businesses to donate money and property by allowing donors to deduct their contributions on their own tax returns. By donating to Team 22 29 you get that tax benefit along with knowing you’re making a positive impact in people’s lives.
Advertisement and Sponsorship for Corporations
Federal and State tax laws stipulate some differences between Sponsorship and Advertisement for nonprofits. Sponsorship is tax deductible, but rules restricting how we display or disseminate information about a Sponsor.
Advertisement however, does not have these restrictions. Because of that it is subject to the same taxes advertising with any for-profit organization. 22 29 will be considering goods and services in trade for advertisement, but it will be subject to approval by the board of directors.
Corporate Sponsors
- Our vehicle will be "wrapped" by a professional print company. The graphics will recognize all of our corporate sponsors. In accordance to the tax laws, names of the corporate sponsors will be distributed evenly over a section of the vehicle such as the hood or trunk lid.
- We will be printing a “team” shirt each year. This shirt will include recognition of all our corporate sponsors.
- We will add a link to your homepage on the 22-29.com website.
- You name will be added to a page recognizing all of our sponsors and donors.
- If you have Company Personnel who would like be present during any of our events to meet the kids and/or Team Riders, we would welcome them to accompany us and welcome them to travel with the team if the event will require traveling over a distance.
Advertising Partners
- Our vehicle will be "wrapped" by a professional print company. The graphics will recognize all of our corporate sponsors and include imagery of our Advertising partners. The placement of images or logos for Advertisers will be determined by both parties and solidified in the terms of the agreement. Advertisers will get to see and sign off on the implementation of their logo into the overall design of the artwork.
- Any apparel you company would like to provide, terms can be arranged so that team riders would be wearing your product during competition events. We are also designing apparel, such as hats and shirts, to promote Team 22 29. If you wish to help fund that, we will incorporate your logo or company name into the design.
- Company souvenirs and products, including posters, stickers, flags etc. can be displayed and distributed by our team at competitions or events the team attend.
- We will add a link to your homepage on the 22-29.com website. We can run adds for company products or special sales on our website if you so wish.
- If you have Company Personnel who would like be present to publicize company products and services, they would be invited to accompany us and welcomed to travel with the team.
- As we grow and more opportunities to promote you or your organization develop, we will work with you to see how best to do it.
If there are specific requests you would like to discuss, we are certainly open to it. We can discuss how your ideas will be affected by the different tax classifications and determine what’s best for you. We want everyone from individual donators, to corporate sponsors and advertising partners to feel like they are a part of what we are doing. After all, the drive to help others is what’s brought us to this place. |
