Red FoxChicago River Day: Sponsorship

Sponsors make a big difference

Friends of the Chicago River invites corporate leaders to join us as a sponsor for our 18th annual Chicago River Day. Sponsorship provides companies with a venue to position themselves as champions of environmental action and stewards of one of the Chicago region’s greatest natural resources.

Chicago River Day provides volunteers with the materials, tools, and training necessary to make an extraordinary and immediate impact on the river’s health. It also provides skills they can employ in their own homes and communities that will continue contributing to the river’s health. In addition, Friends is introducing more volunteers than ever to simple everyday practices that conserve water, help stop unnecessary flooding, and prevent pollutants from running in to the river.

Chicago River Day provides sponsors the opportunity for substantial market exposure, employee involvement, new found goodwill toward your company, and the knowledge that your contribution made a tangible, measurable difference.

Friends has grown Chicago River Day from 25 volunteers at one site in 1992 to nearly 4,000 volunteers at 60 locations in 2009. Please consider joining Chicago River Day 2010 as a sponsor today.
