Corporate Sponsorship Pipeline & Outreach Toolkit

We are planning a free Fathers & Families Crab Feast on December 12, 2026 at Hunt Valley Country Club that will bring fathers from underserved communities together with Maryland legislators and introduce the Maryland Fathers and Families Advocacy Group. Our sponsorship packet and event materials are already prepared, but we need an experienced corporate fundraising and sponsorship professional to help us identify the right corporate decision-makers, strengthen our approach to businesses, and build a sustainable sponsorship pipeline that our team can continue using for this event and future programs.

We are looking for a volunteer with corporate sponsorship and fundraising experience to develop practical outreach materials and a repeatable pipeline for HFAC. The volunteer will:
- Deliver a prioritized list of 20–30 Maryland and national companies with relevant decision-makers where publicly available and a brief explanation of why each company is a strong sponsorship prospect.
- Produce a polished corporate sponsorship pitch plus customizable outreach email templates and follow-up messages.
- Create a sponsorship tracking spreadsheet to organize contacts, outreach status, responses, and next steps.
- Develop a practical outreach strategy that includes recommended priorities, timelines, and guidance for approaching corporate partners for the crab feast and future events.
- Provide a short handoff guide explaining how we can turn event sponsorship opportunities into ongoing relationships that support our programs.
