Media Sponsorship Packages
Sponsor One of NCAC’s Media Outreach Campaigns in Maryland, Virginia, DC, and beyond!
We welcome a partnership with your business through our Media Sponsorship opportunities. Our goal is to communicate the value of Scouting to the broader public and improve our communications with our 33,000 Scouts and their families while sharing how your company can help our leaders and parents/guardians in their Scouting journey. Media sponsorships are available for NCAC’s Newsletter, WeOwnAdventure.com blog, or at in-person events. Sponsorships are acknowledged in a variety of ways such as with a graphic/logo on the website to a logo/link in the e-newsletter.
Newsletter Sponsorship
Listing in both the Family and Volunteer Monthly Newsletters: $500 contribution. A Scout-focused listing in both monthly electronic newsletters sent to 1.) over 48,000 current/former Scout leaders and 2.) 33,000 current Scout (age 5-20) parents. Sponsor will be thanked at the top of the newsletter and with a logo graphic and link to the sponsor’s website. Limited availability – only one per month.
