this is how to help

getstarted is a for-impact program.

 

Since there is no cost to participate, either as a home gardener “Starter” or recipient “Grower,”getstarted relies on the communities with whom we partner for product donation and support. Although your support is not tax deductible, Product & Services donors are greatly appreciated for assisting with purchasing gardening materials-- including seed, soil and containers, plus distribution materials-- including bags, paper and printing services. 

 

If you are interested in helping offset some of our program costs, please email us at info@getstarted.garden. Thank you.

 

Underwriting program costs is also available for Funders or Corporate Sponsors who would like to:

• Reach and influence the home gardening community

• Reach and impact food-insecure families

• Reach and influence affiliated organizations, city and regional governments, and other stakeholders

• Experience a unique, on-going employee engagement program

 

In addition to the positive association all Funders & Sponsors receive as part of the program, getstarted provides increased visibility and name recognition in the form of:

 

• Name and/or logo recognition on collateral, including container labels (on-going, daily exposure), Starter and Grower plant care instructions and resource handouts, and event signage at Start Kit Pick Up & Drop Off Days and multiple food pantry distribution days

• Opportunity to include stand-alone promotional collateral in Start Kit bags (i.e. offers, discounts)

• Name and/or logo recognition on website

• Customized social media posts

• Inclusion in press releases and pitches by professional publicist

• Opportunity to create or provide resource content, i.e. videos and blogs on gardening tips

 

Please contact info@getstarted.garden to discuss customized donor and sponsorship opportunities.
