Friends of Waters offers business sponsorship opportunities twice per year: in the Fall for the Walk-a-Thon and in the Spring for Big Night. From funding the Circle of Help to hiring recess aides that allow teachers to take their full lunch breaks, we depend on the generous support of our families and community members to support the many programs, projects, and initiatives Waters Elementary provides.
As a business sponsor, your support not only helps enrich the educational experience at Waters Elementary, but also connects your brand with a vibrant, engaged community of local families. Sponsorship offers visibility through event signage, social media shoutouts, newsletters, and other marketing opportunities demonstrating your commitment to the neighborhood.
