Sponsorship

Our approach is a direct result of our years of combined experience. Among the many lessons we’ve learned is this: In order for any place-based philanthropic initiative to be successful, it has to address a full spectrum of issues. So we embrace individual funder’s approaches and align them with collective impact strategies that allow us to scale what works. One of the first steps toward improved outcomes is changing the way funders work; together we can achieve more than any one of us can alone.

Sponsorships

About Event Sponsorships
The Northside Funders Group (NFG) believes in the power of relationships to advance social change. To that end, we dedicate funds annually to sponsor events that contribute to strengthening the civic, cultural and social fabric of the Northside.

Sponsorship Size
The annual NFG sponsorship budget is $30,000. We award up to $2,500 per event.

How Do I Apply
Application must be submitted at least 30 days before the event takes place. Each inquiry will be reviewed on a monthly basis (the second Friday of every month) by the membership who will determine final decisions about whether to fund an event and at what level. If you’d like to discuss your event prior to submitting an application, we encourage you to connect with E. Coco at [email protected] or [email protected].
