City Year San Antonio Team Sponsorship
When civic-minded corporations commit their time and resources, City Year takes those commitments seriously. Through the Team Sponsor Program, City Year and corporate partners leverage resources, both financial and human, putting idealism to work in the community. City Year San Antonio currently operates six teams and has several opportunities available.
In working with each corporate partner, City Year builds a specific civic engagement model tailored to fit the mission of the company, adding value through:
- Public Relations
- Brand Recognition
- Volunteer Opportunities
- Customer Engagement
- Employee Engagement
- Civic Engagement
The philosophy of our Team Sponsor Program expands the role of traditional sponsorship beyond simply asking for monetary support. We encourage our sponsors to become active in service, offering opportunities for employees to serve alongside corps members.
“Working side by side with corps members and hearing their stories reinforces one of our core values at Cisco: that we can make a difference in the community."
-John P. Morgridge, Chairman of the Board, Cisco Systems, Inc.
