Sponsorships
A sponsorship is a relationship between a club and a company where the club is provided with valuable resources while sponsors benefit by promoting or advertising their goods and services. Finding sponsorship is not easy and it does require the commitment to both seeking out partnerships and, once those partnerships have been made, fulfilling your end of the agreement. Because your club is under the umbrella of UREC and JMU, there are a number of factors that you must consider and rules that you must abide by in order to create successful partnerships. Please see the Sport Club Sponsorship Guide for guidelines, recommendations and tips and meet with the Assistant Director for Sport Clubs to begin your efforts.
Development
Your club may set up an account with The JMU Foundation to accept tax-deductible donations from club sport alumni, parents, employees and friends. This money can be used to offset your clubs' annual expenses and even create an endowment or scholarship fund. Please see the Sport Club Development Guide for guidelines, recommendations and tips and meet with the Assistant Director for Sport Clubs to begin your efforts.
