Sponsorship Requests

As part of our mission to inspire good in Elkhart County, the Community Foundation supports select community events and initiatives through sponsorships. These sponsorships help nonprofits build relationships, raise funds, and advance their missions.

What We Sponsor

We consider sponsorship support for:

  • Nonprofit fundraising events
  • Local chambers of commerce
  • Community-focused initiatives that align with our values

We do not typically sponsor:

  • Athletic leagues or teams
  • Most school-based fundraisers
  • Events hosted on behalf of another organization

Our focus is on direct support for nonprofits and community partners working to strengthen Elkhart County.

How to Apply

To request a sponsorship, please use our online application through the grant portal. Requests are reviewed by our operations team on a regular basis.

We recommend submitting your request as early as possible, once event sponsorship levels are finalized, to allow time for thoughtful review.

If your event is sponsored, you are welcome to access our [Press Kit] for logos, language, and marketing resources to acknowledge the Community Foundation’s support.
