Conference Sponsorship • Four levels of giving: Platinum - $4,000 and more; Gold - $2,000; Silver - $1,000, and Bronze - $500 • All sponsors receive name and logo in the program, at least one free registration, and opportunity to place one promotional item in the conference gift bag • The higher the contribution the more benefits you receive
“Sponsor a Teacher” • Bank provides $150 per teacher • Teachers attend conference July 19-20 • Teacher brings back curriculum, ideas • Bank sponsorship publicized • Result? Students benefit
Bankers are part of solution • Boosting teens’ financial literacy means: • Fewer bankruptcies • Less susceptibility to scams & identity theft • Reduced credit card debt • Bigger retirement nest eggs • Home ownership • Smarter money managers
