Sponsorship typically involves financial support or in-kind contributions—such as goods, services, supplies, or equipment—that help support operations and bringing the project to life.

Both one-time and ongoing sponsorships are welcomed. You can support a single event, sponsor a segment, or commit to a recurring role in the project. There are flexible options depending on your interest and availability.

Yes! Sponsorship opportunities are designed to be accessible for supporters of all sizes. Whether you’re a solo entrepreneur, a new business, or an established brand, there are ways to get involved that match your capacity and reflect your values.

Sponsorships typically involve financial contributions or in-kind support such as goods, equipment, or services that directly help power specific programs or initiatives.

If you’re interested in playing a more active role—contributing your time, skills, or ideas in a way that involves ongoing collaboration and co-creating—that type of involvement may be better suited for a community partnership.

Both roles are valuable and essential. It’s simply about choosing the level of engagement that aligns best with your capacity, goals, and how you’d like to be involved.

Sponsorships include a range of visibility opportunities based on the level of support. Each package is designed to offer meaningful recognition while aligning with your brand’s values and goals.

Depending on the sponsorship tier, benefits may include:
• Placement on the official digital Sponsor Wall 
• Featured ads on the website and within digital content, including Harnett Cares TV.
• Scheduled social media spotlights and mentions.
• Sponsored content featured on the website or in the newsletter
• Inclusion in email campaigns and community updates
• Opportunities to collaborate on co-branded materials or branded gear
• Recognition at community events or through Community based campaigns

Custom visibility options may also be available based on your sponsorship goals. The goal is to create exposure that feels authentic, valuable, and beneficial to both your brand and the Harnett County community.

Sponsored content is a storytelling-based form of advertising that allows businesses, organizations, or sponsors to share their message in a more engaging and informative way. Instead of a traditional ad, sponsored content appears as an article, interview, spotlight feature, or video that aligns with the overall mission of Harnett Cares while highlighting your brand, product, service, or impact.

It’s a great way to connect with the community, build trust, and share your story in a format that feels authentic, not salesy. If you’re interested in this kind of visibility, let us know through the interest form—we’ll help you explore creative ways to bring your message to life.

Each type of involvement offers a unique way to support and engage with Harnett Cares:

• Advertising is a paid promotional opportunity designed to give your business visibility. This includes featured ads on the website, calendar, directory, digital content, and print media.

• Sponsorship involves financial or in-kind support for specific programs, events, or content. Sponsors receive recognition and visibility tied to their level of support, such as logo placement, mentions, and co-branded opportunities. Sponsors also gain increased access to featured advertising options, priority placement, and exclusive sponsor-only ad perks.

• Partnerships are more collaborative and typically involve an ongoing or active role. Partners may contribute time, services, or shared resources and often work alongside the project to co-create content, lead initiatives, or support long-term goals. Certain types of advertising are also included as part of partnership opportunities, giving partners enhanced access to featured placements, priority visibility, and exclusive partner-only perks that align with their involvement and impact.

Creative support may be included in select partnership or sponsorship packages to help craft cohesive messaging that reflects your brand while aligning with the goals of Harnett Cares. This can include support with co-branded materials, campaign messaging, or referrals to trusted creative partners who can help bring shared ideas to life.

If this type of support is of interest, be sure to note it in the interest form—availability may vary based on the level and type of involvement.

Sponsorship opportunities are designed to be flexible and inclusive. Whether you’re a small local business or a larger company, there are options available at various levels to match your goals and capacity.

Every contribution makes a difference, and we’re happy to work with sponsors to find a level of involvement that feels both meaningful and manageable. If you’re interested in supporting the project, fill out the interest form to start the conversation.
