Community partnership opportunities are available to:
Any citizen
Any social services agency
Any civic organization
Any business, corporate, or governmental entity
Our goal will always be to generate an open relationship between our partners, our veterans, and the community. Our partners help us economically increase the veteran and community support services that we provide, minimizing taxpayer cost, for veterans and their families.
Our desire is to promote Jacksonville and the Northeast Florida region as the best place to live, work and raise a family by providing continuous improvement in the delivery of our veteran-related, community-based programs and special events.
What do we ask of our community partnerships? Simply that they provide ongoing formal and informal advocacy for issues and programs that help veterans and their families when working with the many community and political leaders that they normally would come in contact with.
Community partnerships also help us by providing in-kind donations through goods and/or services that they specialize in, including volunteers, as well as financial contributions. In turn, we help our community partners by providing increased name recognition while generating community-wide goodwill for a fraction of the costs incurred with other promotional and marketing plans.
Specifically, we offer:
* A confident and secure linkage to America's military veterans and their families
* Acknowledgement of contributions through public speaking and outreach engagements
* Banner placements at special events, receptions, conferences, and reunions hosted by us
* Logo and name recognition through flyers, posters, program inserts, public service announcements
* Articles and commentaries provided to newspapers, newsletters, magazines, radio and television stations and public access programs
