Annual Signature Events
Signature events are essential to our fundraising activities. Each of these events assists in raising critical dollars to support the mission of the organization as well as provides excellent opportunities to educate and engage new community members.
Hospice of the Chesapeake is always seeking companies and organizations who are interested in developing sponsor or partner relationships. Being a sponsor is a great way of giving back to your community while providing exposure for your business. This shows your employees and customers that your business recognizes the importance of the services we provide and that you are invested in our success. Corporate sponsors will receive special opportunities and benefits at our major fundraising events and recognition on our website and through social media. If you are interested in discussing sponsorship or partnership opportunities, please contact us at 443-837-1531.
