For more than 20 years, we have addressed sustainability and other social cause actions through strategic sponsorships that fund major developments, events, venues and programs. We were doing “purpose” way before it was a thing.
Out of a sense of personal commitment to the environment and to the health and happiness of younger generations, Kevin Bartram and his network of specialists have established Sustainable Sponsorships as a dedicated practice.
It is our deep intention to drive innovative partnerships that generate substantial, material value for corporate partners in return for their investment in organizations and properties committed to lifting society through innovation, technology, civic engagement and new ways of thinking.
Sustainable Sponsorships develops and activates highly effective partnership programs involving major brands and sponsored properties. The result stimulates the overall economy, generating growth and revenue for the partners involved, while simultaneously creating a positive, sustainable impact on the communities served.
Sustainable Development Goals
Aligning with the global mission of the UN’s “Sustainable Development Goals” (SDG’s) created gives framing and guidance for our work. Each of the 17 goals correlates with a specific call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, improve the lives and prospects of everyone, everywhere. We are committed to driving action that addresses as many of these goals as possible, in the US and beyond.

The
SUSTAINABLE
Bottom line
No matter the client, our objective is to establish mutually beneficial sustainable partnerships that drive action for society. Our most successful projects and programs result in wins for all involved – our clients, their partners, and the community stakeholders they serve.
We develop and activate effective sponsorship programs that include some combination of naming rights, sustainability initiatives, experiential marketing programs, special events, media platforms and community engagement. The outcome is a partner ecosystem that connects with fans, audiences and visitors while generating revenue and other forms of value for the sponsored property.
PARTNERSHIP ECOSYSTEM
Our primary intention with Sustainable Sponsorships is to advance the work of brands and other organizations that seek to address climate change, political polarization, and other environmental and social justice issues that are plaguing society through strategic, profitable partnerships.
