Hispanic Fiesta sponsorship opportunities for area businesses
The Fall Fiesta at Vol State is a free celebration of Hispanic culture. Food, music and fun will be among the highlights. There will be a food cook-off contest featuring homemade dishes from many different Hispanic countries. A soccer contest will run all day and feature trophies for the winners. There will be a live band, a folk dance exhibition and many other cultural events. We’ll also have medical check-ups and information from area community groups.
Non-profits are welcome to have a free table at the event, as long as it fits the theme of the event and addresses needs in the Hispanic community. At this time we are not having any businesses actually selling items at the Fiesta. We have decided to keep it an entirely free event.
Businesses who want to reach the Hispanic population can have display tables and give out free samples as a Fiesta Sponsor. There is a required donation of $100 to the Hispanic Alliance Scholarship Fund at Vol State. It will go for books or tuition for a Vol State student each year. All donations are tax deductible and will be made directly to the College Foundation.
Any sponsors who make donations are entitled to have their company logo displayed as a sponsor on Fiesta fliers. Thousands of these fliers are distributed throughout north Davidson, Sumner, Robertson and Wilson Counties. Sponsors will be added to the poster runs as new ones are printed.
A sponsor thank-you poster will be displayed at the event
The Fall Fiesta at Vol State is a non-profit community event paid for by Volunteer State Community College. It is run in a partnership with the Sumner County Hispanic Alliance. Everyone is invited to participate and attend.
Sponsor donations should be sent to: Hispanic Alliance Scholarship Fund, The Volunteer State College Foundation, 1480 Nashville Pike, Gallatin, TN 37066
