Partner with Real Men CARE and help support male spousal caregivers, and the women and children they love. All donations are tax-deductible. Without the generous support of companies, organizations, and individuals like you, Real Men CARE cannot produce the events and provide the services that we offer. We are extremely grateful for you – our partners and sponsors. Thank you in advance for helping us ensure a highly successful year! We appreciate you!

What is a Partner?

Partners of Real Men CARE support our organization in many ways. A partnership can arise through financial means or a donation of your services, temporarily or long-term. Various partnership options are listed below. All partnership levels can be either monetary donations or in-kind donations with the approval of the Board President.

PARTNERSHIP LEVELS

Silver Partner ($250)

The Silver Partner is a $250 level of partnership and sponsors our Empowerment Sessions. As an Empowerment Session sponsor, your name/logo will be posted on our monthly e-newsletter, as well as in all advertising related to Empowerment Sessions. This annual sponsorship lasts one year from the date the check is deposited and is not contingent on the calendar or fiscal year. The donor will also have their name/logo displayed on the Partners & Sponsors page for one full year.

Gold Partner ($500)

The $500 level of partnership allows the donor to choose the program they would like to support. The services that Real Men CARE provide have a significant impact and our programs benefit hundreds of local residents, but we are striving to have a national reach and move the male caregiver community closer to receiving the recognition it deserves.  Our programs include counseling and support, financial assistance, education and training, KidKare Kits (a care package program for children of chronically ill and/or disabled mothers), and Kuts & Kurls for Kids (a hair care voucher program). The donor will have their logo or name displayed on the Partners & Sponsors page for three months.

Presenting Partner ($1,000)

The $1,000 level of partnership allows the donor to become the Presenting Sponsor for one of our three annual fundraisers:  Iron Sharpens Iron Awards Reception (only one sponsor), Band of Brothers Walk (one sponsor per location), or the Annual Black Tie Ball (three sponsors needed). Presenting sponsors will have their logo displayed on the Partners & Sponsors page, in our e-newsletter, on our social media sites, and on all printed materials for the event. This partnership level also includes two tickets to the sponsored event. This sponsor will have their logo or name displayed on the Partners & Sponsors page for six months.

Platinum Partner ($5,000)

A donor who gives $5,000 to support Real Men CARE becomes a Platinum Partner. The $5,000 level of partnership includes all of the above, plus three tickets to the Iron Sharpens Iron Awards Reception and the Annual Black Tie Ball (twelve tickets in total). This sponsor will have their logo or name displayed on the Partners & Sponsors page for one full year.
