Introducing the GSSHA Sponsorship Drive!

It’s simple.

For every $500 in sponsorship money you bring to our club, you get a free entry to any class at one of our club shows*!

That’s it. There’s no other rules.

We’re committed to transparency and great communication, so we’ve outlined what we’ll be using the sponsorship money for in each of our programs. We’ve also set fundraising goals for each program and will keep this page updated as our community helps us surpass them!

SPONSORSHIP GOALS

*sorry, this does not include entries at our July NRCHA show. See schedule.

Since you asked:

Are there limits on how many free entries I can get?

Nope! If you bring in $1,000,000 in sponsorship money, we’re happy to give you 2000 free entries.

Can I get multiple sponsorships that add up to $500?

Yes, absolutely! We appreciate sponsorships in smaller amounts and will happily honor free entries once your total gets above $500.

How do I get my free entries?

Our updated sponsorship form for 2018 has a section to write in the name of the referral.

We’ll keep track of the free entries you’ve racked up and you can cash them in at any of our club shows.

How long does this promotion last?

For all of 2018! However, it’s helpful to get sponsorships in as early in the year as possible. This helps make sure businesses get the full benefit of our advertising efforts, as well as helping us put the money to the best use in improving our shows and clinics.

Does this mean there will be less jackpot money in each class?

No, definitely not! Gem State will cover the $15 jackpot fee for each free entry.

Can I just make a donation?

You angel, you! Of course you can, and thank you!

What are the benefits of sponsoring?

Without the help of our sponsors, the programs we offer would not exist! Sponsorship dollars assist in many aspects of our Association, including funding for high-quality shows and Year End awards at our annual banquet.

We believe sponsorship should be beneficial for everyone involved, so we make sure to promote the businesses that support us on our Facebook, in our email updates, and throughout this website. For full details about how sponsoring can help your business as well as levels of sponsorship, please see our Become A Sponsor page!

GSSHA is also a 501(c)(3), making your support tax deductible.

SPONSOR BENEFITS

Can my sponsorship directly support a specific class or program?

Yes, absolutely! We’ve updated the sponsorship form to allow you to choose where you’d like your money spent. You can be as specific as donating to a certain class or as broad as donating to our general fund.

Scroll down to see our fundraising goals for each category, as well as examples of what your money might help us with for each.
