Verve Community Support

Our way of giving back includes a hearty serving of energy and enthusiasm.

The Verve Philosophy

We’re not the “write a check and wish you luck” kind of sponsor.

If you’ve seen us at an event, you know our approach to community support is anything but ordinary. We love opportunities to not only support organizations financially, but also have a little fun along the way.

What We Do

Partnering with YOU to make a positive impact on our communities.

We look for opportunities to support the communities we serve that give us the chance to interact with your event attendees and have a positive impact on a large portion of our membership.

What We Don’t Do

We’re all for trying new things, but…

We want our community support funds to make the most impact, so we don’t cover things like travel expenses, conference attendance fees or political sponsorship requests.

How Apps are Reviewed

We only review online applications.

Complete the online application and attach all applicable documentation as soon as you have the majority of details for your request. The earlier you submit, the more likely we are to accommodate as our schedule fills up fast.

Paper and email requests will not be considered. You’ll receive an immediate email confirmation that your submission has been received and an official sponsorship decision within 8 weeks.

Sponsorship

Just like it sounds, sponsorships are payments we make to support any for-profit or nonprofit organization in exchange for promotional or marketing value. We’re not looking for our name listed in an event booklet (though we like that too), but rather a way we can get involved, participate and interact with your event attendees. Please note, we may contact you for additional information or to set up a meeting. Please note: all Sponsorship requests must be submitted by July 1 of the current year for the following year's sponsorship. We review all current and new requests throughout fall. Our budget is usually finalized in late Janunary of the new year. Due to all the requests we get, sometimes we're unable to follow up directly to notify you if your request has been approved or denied. If you need an immediate answer, please reach back out to us in February of the new year. Sponsorship requests may still be submitted after July 1 but may be kept until the following year's sponsorship review.
