EVENT SPONSORSHIP
The Annual BUXMONT Living “Celebrate Community” concert has proven very successful as a community-building event and a fund-raising tool. Each year we are grateful for the many generous business partners and private individual sponsors who support this special program.
Sponsorship levels vary $250, $500, 1,000, $2,500. Each sponsorship level provides an assortment of benefits for the sponsor including recognition or advertising space in the publication, listing with links on the BUXMONT Living web site, reserved seating tickets to the show, and sponsorship notices in the program booklet.
Linking your company or personal name with this event demonstrates your strong commitment to the community and our efforts to provide information to our readers that will help strengthen families, build positive relationships, and promote healthy lifestyles.
Watch for information about this year’s “Celebrate Community” event or contact any board/staff member about how you can get involved.
WORD SEARCH PARTNERS
Our many Word Search respondents are also our most loyal readers. Each year we like to thank them for their support and participation with the Word Search puzzle. We have been able to provide a special discount coupon that is mailed to the respondents with as “thank you” and we encourage the puzzlers to support the local business that supplies the coupon. We also encourage these readers, if they can, to send a small contribution to the paper to help defray the cost of the free publication.
We have had remarkable response to this program and invite and local business to become involved as a coupon provider for a discount on products or services. The typical coupon exchange involves providing approximately 500 coupons for $3.00-$5.00 off a product or service.
Our response rate for coupon use has been above 10% and the percentage of Word Search respondents has been nearly 25%.
This program offers a convenient, promotional opportunity for any local business. Contact Brenda Oelschlager 215-257-9569(H), 215-723-8750×108(W) for information about becoming a Word Search Partner.
