Sponsorships

Supporting customers who attend workshops on various topics including problem solving, record keeping, decision-making, business planning and business continuity.

Sponsorship Program

As a cooperative, FCSAmerica invests in our customer’s financial success. This includes sponsoring the registration fee for customers to attend approved educational programs or events that address problem solving, record keeping, decision-making and/or business planning. Programs that assist customers with business continuity, such as succession, family transition, retirement and estate planning, also may qualify for sponsorship.

Customers who meet eligibility requirements may qualify for up to $1,000 to cover all or part of a program’s registration fee. Travel, lodging and other expenses are not eligible for reimbursement and are the responsibility of participants.

Sponsorships are awarded following FCSAmerica’s review of eligibility. Participants will be contacted by FCSAmerica within two business days of submitting their request for sponsorship.

Each such customer (or customer representative in the case of an entity customer) may receive only one (1) sponsorship per calendar year. The date of attendance for the approved event will serve as the reference year for the one-per-year limit. All applications must be approved in advance of attendance at an educational event. The Associations reserve the right to reject any application for any reason.
