The CDC corporate
sponsorship program offers companies a chance to join the University
of Nevada in its ongoing effort to reach out to larger Las Vegas
and improve the quality of life in our community. The program is
based on the premise that there is more than one way to help the
common cause. Your company can aid our efforts by supporting the
Center’s programs financially. You might also take active
part in Justice & Democracy Forums, coach high school students
preparing for mock trial competitions, provide judges for the Federal
Court contest “We the People,” subsidize a training
seminar on emotional intelligence, entertain a foreign business
delegation looking for investment opportunities, sponsor a luncheon
honoring J & D forum panelists, underwrite a CDC publication,
cheer on the sidelines for the home team – there is no shortage
of creative ways for those willing to get involved and make a difference.
The CDC executive
board would be glad to meet with your company representatives and
help you identify specific ways in which your firm or business can
join forces with us in advancing civic culture in our community.
We shall also explain the benefits that your association with the
UNLV Center for Democratic Culture will confer on your organization.
There are several tangible ways in which your company can benefit
from this partnership:
- The name
of your organization will appear on the UNLV website, along with
the description of your company and its contribution to civic
life in the city of Las Vegas and the State of Nevada;
- Your company
logo will be prominently displayed in CDC publications, its corporate
sponsorship highlighted in the J & D Forum book series and
the Nevada Law Journal publications;
- You will
be invited to attend an annual dinner with CDC board members honoring
corporate sponsors;
- We shall
assist your organization in developing a state of the art web
site, a corporate letterhead, and a corporate logo through the
services of award-winning designers associated with the Center;
- CDC professionals
will offer your organization a free seminar on the role of emotional
intelligence in the workplace;
- You will
have a chance to shape the project “CIVITAS: The Alliance
for Public Culture & Democracy” that advances public
culture and discourse in Las Vegas and Southern Nevada;
- Above all,
you will have a sense of satisfaction and well-earned pride knowing
that you pull your weight in the community and further civic life
in Las Vegas and Nevada.
We understand
that the company’s ability to participate in a corporate giving
program is constrained by many factors – the organization’s
size, profit margins, prevailing economic conditions – and
we are ready to sit down with each potential sponsor and work out
a realistic, flexible plan that would allow your organization to
make a contribution in kind, in cash, in good cheer, or any other
way. You may start with one form of assistance, supplement it with
another in due course, and move to a new level of giving altogether
when the circumstances warrant.
