What Is "Event Sponsoring"?
Event Sponsoring is a new strategy we are trying to promote to help the active chapter gain major corporate or business sponsorships for their philanthropic events through their connections with the chapter's alumni. These annual events, such as Hoops For Kids, raise money for various charities and are typically some of the largest, most high exposure events on campus.

What Does This Require?
That depends, your company can provide financial backing or material support to cover the overhead and promotional costs for the events, or donate directly to the charity in the name of the event.

What's In It For Me/My Company?
Great question, and the answer is.... a lot. James Madison University is currently home to 16,000 students aged 18 to 26, one of the most targeted and sought after demographic markets in the world. For that very reason, James Madison's governing body does not allow outside companies to come onto campus to advertise their products and services to students. A condition exists however, in that a sponsoring company or business may cooperate with a student organization/fraternity to have a presence on campus while the event is underway. That's where your direct affiliation with Sigma Nu comes in. By becoming a major sponsor for an event such as Hoops For Kids, your company can get its name and message out to over 16,000 students, most of whom live in the Northern Virginia, DC, Maryland, and New Jersey regions.
