The Hartford Rib Off invites you to help make a difference in the lives of people in our community by becoming a Corporate Sponsor. Your contribution is needed to help fund the programs we have chosen to benefit this year.
WHEN YOUR COMPANY SUPPORTS THE HARTFORD RIB OFF:
- It sends a strong message to the community that your organization is socially responsible and cares about giving back to the community. It’s a win/win!
- It demonstrates to your employees that your company is forward-thinking and committed to making a difference in the community where they live. Your employees can also take advantage of volunteer opportunities at our event to help achieve that goal.
- Volunteering as a group encourages team building, pride in the organization, and the satisfaction of giving back whether through funds or time. The organization and employees gain a better understanding of the challenges facing the community in which they live, work, and support.
These are just a few of the ways in which your company or organization will benefit from a partnership with The Hartford Rib Off. A relationship with The Hartford Rib Off is more than just a business deal; it’s a promise to our community for a better tomorrow.
In 2021 we are proud to benefit The Hole in the Wall Gang Camp, Journey Home CT, and the Hartford Rib Off Scholarship Fund.
