Become a Sponsor
We would not be able to continue our mission of supporting abused, neglected and at-risk youth without the generosity of all of our devoted sponsors. By joining our nationwide efforts, sponsors can make a major impact by embracing and backing our numerous endeavors throughout the affiliated National Courage House Network and enhancing the lives of thousands of children in need.
As an added benefit, sponsors are rewarded with tickets to the exclusive Ed Block Celebration and VIP Sponsor Brunch as well as spending time with the Courage Award recipients and meeting them on a personal level, while being included in our year-round advertising promotions and digital content.
