Sponsor Overview:
This is our 9th year of the Hack-A-Thon Program, which takes place each January, with this year’s program offered as a blended model (virtual/on-site). In 2021, we did a digital transformation of the program to allow for a blend of in-person and online participation. This transformation has enabled our organization to reach a broader audience of students, including rural communities where such programs are unavailable. Our program structure will continue in this format, allowing community partners and school districts to host students in person where possible. Our online coding training begins the week of November 4th, 2024.
Sponsors will gain more exposure due to the shift in the timeline and more exposure nationally and globally as we will have a larger audience to support in participating. Select the sponsor level below and add to the cart to sponsor the program. Once you submit the sponsor form, someone from our team will reach out with details to coordinate your sponsor package.
If you have questions on sponsor levels, you can contact us at events@we-connect-the-dots.org
All sponsors are recognized through a press release, including a personal thank you from our leadership team via social media. Based on the level of sponsorship our goal is to offer broad branding opportunities locally, nationally and globally. Each participant will receive a branded pull string backpack bag, tshirt, and fun sponsor items included within the bag. Branding exposure extends beyond the students, to include parents, community members, and volunteers supporting the program.
Funding supports students from underrepresented populations and low income communities to participate in the program free.
