To complete the 20,000 hours of volunteering done at more than 200 jobsites on the big day, The Big Event needs supplies specific to the jobsite's project, lunches to sustain our volunteers, and t-shirts for volunteers to show appreciation and spread our name. The Big Event accepts both cash and in-kind donations. All donations are tax deductible. The Big Event is prepared to offer our partners comprehensive promotional opportunities that will publicize your company or organization on the University of Oklahoma campus as well as throughout the Norman and Oklahoma City areas. The Big Event offers our sponsors numerous advertising venues such as on the Big Event website, which all the non-profits visit to register for the Big Event. In addition, sponsors have the opportunity to include their logo on our sponsorship banner and signs, on jobsite signs across Norman and Oklahoma City, and on over 5,000 staff and volunteer T-shirts.
Sponsorship levels start at $500. Thank you!
If your company already works with a non-profit service organization, please send us their information and we would be happy to incorporate them as one of the many beneficiary organizations of The Big Event.
