Sponsorship
Invest in our mission through cash donations, in-kind-donations, and other strategic partnerships
What You Support
Sponsorship has a direct impact on daily operations
Last winter, we educated more than 2,000 students and published forecast products on 146 days. Our corporate sponsors provide the fiscal foundation that keeps the lights on. Through their commitment and engagement year-after-year, we are able to keep funding our forecasting and education programs.
Get your brand in front of our stoked audience
Our benefits are better than ever! With 300,000 visitors to flatheadavalanche.org annually, 7,000 followers on Instagram, and 1,700 newsletter subscribers, lots of eyes see the brands that support our mission. Sponsor benefits go beyond logo placements to include private avalanche awareness classes for your staff, NRSAW tickets, and premier boothing opportunities.
