|
| |
Share information about CFCA sponsorship with your family and friends and provide assistance at CFCA events in your local area. |
| |
| • |
Visit one-on-one with your family and friends. Share your enthusiasm for sponsorship over coffee and invite someone close to you to become a sponsor. We provide resource materials to share including folders of children, youth and aging friends awaiting sponsorship. |
A CFCA advocate talks to friends about sponsorship. |
| • |
Host a sponsorship party. A sponsorship party provides the perfect opportunity to gather friends and family together and enjoy each other's company while sharing CFCA's message of hope. We make it easy with a sponsorship party booklet, invitations and folders with profiles of children, youth and aging persons awaiting sponsorship.
|
| • |
Provide assistance at the sponsorship table during a CFCA weekend event. Answer basic questions from potential sponsors and help them look through folders containing profiles and photos of children waiting for sponsorship. |

|
Reach out within your local community by giving a talk about your sponsorship experience and invite people of good will to become sponsors. Extensive public speaking experience is not necessary. However, the ability to speak from your heart and work as part of a team is essential. A comprehensive outreach handbook and ongoing support is available.
| • |
Share about CFCA at your local church.
Whether giving a two-minute testimonial during announcements or a longer presentation outside of the service, sharing your enthusiasm for sponsorship inspires others to take action. |
Sponsor advocates set up a CFCA display with folders of children and the aging awaiting sponsorship. |
| • |
Make a presentation to a local community group. Are you a member of a group, book club or committee? Consider speaking about your sponsorship experience and sharing folders of children, youth and aging friends awaiting sponsorship. |
| • |
Organize sponsor activities at your church. Hosting a letter-writing party makes it easy for sponsors to write a letter to their sponsored friend and get to know other sponsors in their area. |
| • |
Set up and maintain a brochure display. We provide attractive cardboard display stands and a supply of sponsorship brochures to be placed in your local community. |
