University of Arkansas Sr High Band Camp (July 16 – 21)

2023 Sponsorship Program
Our biggest fundraiser of the year is here. We have two ways for students to earn funds for their band fees through a sponsorship: Business Sponsorships and Friends & Family Sponsorships.
We have several levels and many ways to promote our business sponsors. Students will receive 50% of any Business Sponsorships they obtain until their season fees are paid. Donations received are eligible for a tax receipt. First deadline is July 1, so act fast!
New! The Friends & Family sponsorship option is an easy way for students and families to reach out to their personal network and receive donations to be directly applied to that student! 100% of Friends & Family sponsorships are applied to the selected student’s Charms account. Share our pre-created social posts and link directly to the donation portal.
