🚨 FOUNDING SPONSOR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY 🚨
As Oarsome Odyssey and the Southern Illinois Veterans Foundation continue building momentum toward the Great Loop expedition and our mission to help END veteran su***de, we want to give local businesses a meaningful way to support the mission while also receiving real value in return.
Starting today, businesses that become FOUNDING SPONSORS through a donation or sponsorship to Oarsome Odyssey will unlock access to exclusive discounted merchandise pricing through Shirts For Vets.
Here’s how it works:
💥 Your donation becomes your discount value.
Example:
If your business donates $500 toward the mission, your business can receive up to $500 in discounted merchandise pricing over time.
For example:
Standard for-profit shirt pricing may normally be $12 per shirt, while nonprofit pricing is $9 per shirt.
That means:
👉 Your sponsorship unlocks a $3 per shirt savings
👉 The discount continues until your sponsorship value has been fully used
And businesses sponsoring at the 💥 $5,000+ level 💥 will receive nonprofit-level pricing for TWO FULL YEARS.
This allows businesses to:
✔ Support a mission that matters
✔ Help raise awareness for veteran su***de
✔ Receive long-term value for company apparel, event shirts, uniforms, promotional items, and merchandise
This is more than sponsorship.
This is becoming part of the mission from the beginning.
We are looking for businesses that want to stand behind veterans, community, purpose, and something bigger than themselves.
⚓ Join the mission.
⚓ Become a Founding Sponsor.
⚓ Help us row for the 22 veterans we lose every single day.
