One of our favorite sayings is:   

    Tell me, and I will forget.
Show me, and I may remember.
Involve me, and I will understand.

Confucius, BC 450

We find that a great model to use with companies is by having support in multiple ways – not just monetary support but getting employees involved as volunteers and/or hosting events.  We look for the
Win – Win – in particular: 

  • Space for events, meetings, workshops, training, scrimmages
  • Volunteers for events and teams
  • Monetary support for events and teams
  • Equipment donations for events and teams
  • Connections to like-minded organizations and people
