Sponsor Hunt: Wine & Geek Event
Budget: $250 – $750 USD
I’m gearing up for an unusual tasting evening that pairs Long Island wines with “geek food” specialties, produced under the banner of the Hellenic American Taxpayers & Civic Association of Southold Township. Every dollar we raise will go straight to the Greek Studies programs at Queens College, CUNY, so I want an experienced fund-raiser who can secure solid corporate sponsorships before we pour the first glass.
My focus is very specific: approach Long Island wineries as well as Greek-cuisine restaurants across the tri-state area and convert their interest into signed sponsorship agreements. You’ll have professionally designed event brochures, flyers and a detailed sponsorship proposal ready to share; use them, personalise them, and close the deal.
Key deliverables
• A confirmed list of sponsoring wineries and restaurants, each with signed commitment letters and the dollar amount (or in-kind value) secured
• A brief report outlining outreach activity, conversations held, and next steps for any leads still in progress
• All sponsor logos, banner copy or tasting-table requirements gathered in time for our print deadline
Success means the event launches with funding fully covered—and our guests discover just how well Cabernet pairs with cosplay popcorn. If you’re persuasive, well-connected in the regional food-and-beverage scene, and can start immediately, let’s talk.
