Become a DRI Foundation Steward and Support Your Local Nonprofit

DRI Certified Professionals play a vital role in the DRI Foundation’s Steward Program by nominating local, volunteer-driven, grassroots nonprofits that require assistance. While these organizations may lack resources, they are dedicated to making a positive impact in their communities. Every donation goes directly toward helping them fulfill their mission. 

Nonprofit Champions Program

 Here to Support Our Communities – DRI Foundation Nonprofit Champions Program

A first of its kind in the industry, The DRI Foundation Nonprofit Champions Program provides a unique opportunity to support amazing nonprofits and recognize the wonderful people on your team to 20,000+ DRI Certified Professionals and 50,000+ subscribers.

How the Nonprofit Champions Program Works

The DRI Nonprofit Champions Program offers an exclusive marketing package that provides unmatched industry awareness for your team’s BC program and nonprofit efforts while donating a portion of your sponsorship directly to the organizations you support! You don’t need to wait to have an impact; our charitable giving guarantees your funds go directly to your chosen nonprofit.

Creating Widespread Awareness for You and Your Nonprofit

We want to showcase dedicated professionals like you and the important organizations that you support! By sharing your story with our professionals and subscribers, you are concurrently providing much deserved recognition to your team and awareness about what your nonprofit does. Our sponsored nonprofits have reported exponentially increased fundraising due to our marketing.

Our Exclusive Packages

The DRI Foundation provides two levels of sponsorship: Silver Champion and Gold Champion Levels.

Both packages provide both year-round marketing and a presence at our industry-leading DRI2024 Conference, to be held at the Hilton New Orleans Riverside on Mar. 3-6, 2024. Our DRIVE e-newsletter, website, blogs, and social media provide a welcome spotlight for you and your chosen nonprofit to more than 50,000 subscribers.

At our conference, you will get to showcase your team and non-profit as a representative at our Joint Nonprofit Champions Booth. You will also receive full conference passes, Awards Gala tickets, and a presence on our conference app. The Gold Champion Package provides even more benefits, from sending a joint press release, to extra full conference passes, to presenting at our Awards Gala.

(Please see our detailed chart for the benefits included in each Sponsorship Package. Custom Packages are also available.)
