The Bodine School

Corporate Support

Businesses and corporations are an important source of support for The Bodine School. Gifts of professional services and much needed supplies and equipment are a welcome addition to the valuable financial support offered by the business community. The following are just a few of the ways your corporate support is welcome. For further information or ideas, contact our Development Office at 901-754-1800, ext. 305 or email Carol Carlson, Director of Development and Public Relations.

Grants and Cash Donations: Many companies have employee directed grants, donations, or corporate driven foundations. The Bodine School would be honored to be considered for your corporate giving programs and would be happy to provide any documentation or formal requests needed to initiate your donation.

Sponsorships: Corporate sponsorships are needed for The Bodine School Spring Auction and numerous other events throughout the year. Sponsorship levels range from $500 to $10,000 and offer a variety of benefits and recognitions for our sponsors. Check our Special Events page to learn more or contact our Development Office for details.

Sponsor A Student: More than one-third of our students rely on scholarships and financial aid to make their education at The Bodine School possible. Your business or corporation can sponsor a student with a restricted donation for tuition assistance for a semester, a year, or an education for as long as the student needs to be here.

Matching Gifts: Does your company match employee donations to The Bodine School?  Let us know so we can pass that information on and keep the required forms and policies on file.  Would your company be interested in a “challenge” grant?  Your offer to match all donations made to The Bodine School within a given period of time will encourage new donors and double the impact of your own gift.  Contact our Development Office to discuss what programs you have or might like to initiate.

In-Kind Donations: Your donation of equipment, supplies, and professional services can help offset many expenses and expand the resources of The Bodine School in a valuable way. See our Wish List for specific needs or contact our Development Office to see how you can best assist us.

Donate to our Spring Auction: If you would like to make a donation of an item or service to be placed in our silent or live auction, click here to download an Auction Donation Form.  Hundreds of exciting services and items are offered at this, our largest event, and your donation will help make this event a success while promoting your business.
