Our Sponsors
Sponsorship & Support
The Simsbury Historical Society (SHS) is grateful to our generous business sponsors and individual supporters. A non-profit organization, SHS counts upon community support in the form of donations and grants to preserve buildings, collections, and grounds; to maintain archives; to provide research access for students, interested individuals and scholars, and to develop and host special events and programs.
Individual and Business Sponsors commit to specific levels of directed support. Sponsorship benefits include co-branded merchandise opportunities, recognition on our website, and acknowledgement in social media, e-newsletters, and in on-site signage– providing thousands of impressions.
Help us continue preserving the past and enriching the future. Review suggested levels of support and their rewards on the download; contact the director (director@simsburyhistory.org) to discuss current activities at the Historical Society and determine which sponsorship level is most appropriate for you or your organization. We look forward to hearing from you.
