Corporate Partners
With Your Help, Great Futures Start Here.
Our Corporate Partners play a large role in the success of our organization and our kids. You can become a Corporate Partner by making a multi-level commitment to our mission through a variety of ways such as event and program sponsorship, volunteering, workplace giving and cause marketing.

Ways to Partner
Sponsor
Choose from a variety of sponsorship options, starting at $1,000. You can sponsor a special event, a program or even an entire Club and enjoy special recognition benefits. Contact Angie Stumpo at astumpo@bgcgrandrapids.org to learn more about partnering with us to support kids in our community.
Volunteer
We can help you determine the best option to engage your employees in volunteering at our Clubs. Whether it’s a weekly tutoring session or a large group clean-up, you can help make a big difference in our kids’ lives. Contact Kayla Anders at 616-233-9369 or kanders@bgcgrandrapids.org to talk about volunteer opportunities.
Workplace Giving
Jeans days – Who doesn’t love wearing jeans? Charge $1-$5 and turn casual Fridays into a wonderful way to give back to kids in our community.
Supply drives – In addition to financial donations, we are always in need of art supplies, new or gently used electronics, food service items and more. Check out our Wish List and host a drive at your company to collect items that would be greatly appreciated.
Host an event – Host a happy hour or a dodge ball competition- whatever gets your employees excited to participate! Tie in games or an entry fee to donate to Boys & Girls Clubs of Grand Rapids
Get creative! Contact us and let us know what ideas you have, or we’d be happy to help you think of something that your employees would love AND that would help our organization immensely.
Cause Marketing
Encourage your customers to join you in supporting our mission by asking them to make a donation or advertising a percent of sales fundraiser.
Point of sale donation request – If you run a storefront, an easy way to make an impact is to request a donation at each sale. Make it fun by tying in a paper display to showcase donations. Those $1-$5 contributions can really add up!
Percentage of sales donation – Another easy fundraiser is to donate a portion of sales. It can be for one night, one month, or more! Determine a timeframe and advertise your fundraiser to attract people in our community who want to help too.
