Fair Sponsorship

WHY SPONSOR

Sponsorship is a great way to showcase your business, but where does your money go? Funds raised by the Foothills Community Housing Fair support the ongoing efforts of Housing Committee of Hickory Branch NAACP’s Equity and Inclusion Task Force. The Housing Committee is a volunteer-driven network, associated with several self-sustaining 501(c)(3) organizations, whose focus is to promote equity and access through housing. Sponsorship makes the event an immediate success, while also opening the door to affordable housing for our community members who need it most. Your participation goes a long way!

YOUR IMPACT

Strength, stability, and self-reliance begin at home. That’s why the Foothills Community Housing Fair is joining with professionals from across the housing industry to provide our neighbors with the keys to unlocking housing solutions that are affordable, attainable, and sustainable. This event showcases housing leaders throughout our community who are providing the education, resources, and services our neighbors need to build a solid foundation. Join us for a day of promoting access through affordable housing.
