Sponsorship

NOWCastSA is seeking sponsors to support our mission to promote and facilitate an inclusive civic conversation. Whether you would like to see your brand associated with nonprofit news coverage as a whole, or zero in on more specific topics or even individual webcasts, we offer sponsorship and underwriting opportunities to meet your needs.

 

All sponsors will be recognized on our sponsorship page with direct links to the sponsor’s web site as well as in our annual report. Contact Amanda Evrard, Development Director, at (970) 222-1847 or by e-mail at amanda@nowcastsa.org for more information on the sponsorship opportunities listed below.
