Why Partner With Us

It's not just a logo placement.

Sponsoring Rising Stars Academy puts your name in front of local families who are actively investing in their kids — and ties your brand to faith, character, and youth development from the ground floor.

01

Direct Local Reach

Direct exposure to local families and athletes across Craven County and surrounding areas — every camp day, all summer long.

02

Brand Association

Positive brand association with youth development, faith, and character — the kind of values families remember and recommend.

03

Growing Program

A growing program with multi-sport expansion plans. Get in early as a foundational partner — your support shapes what RSA becomes.

04

Community Presence

Strong community presence and engagement on the ground and online. Your logo is seen, your name is shared, your brand gets traction.

Sponsorship Tiers

Four ways to get on the team.

Every tier builds on the one before it — Community supports the program, Captain adds banner placement and social shoutouts, All-Star adds your logo on the gear and a sponsor page feature, and MVP gets you the most visible placements we offer. Pick the level that fits.

Other Ways to Partner

Not just cash.

If a tier sponsorship isn't the right fit, there's plenty of other ways to support RSA — and we'll absolutely make sure you're recognized for it.

Equipment Sponsorships

Donate or underwrite specific gear — footballs, cones, blocking pads, water coolers, first-aid supplies. We'll attribute it to your business at camp and online.

Scholarship Sponsorships

Sponsor a kid. Cover one (or more) athletes' camp fee for a family that can't quite swing it. Scholarships are confidential — the kid never knows it wasn't a parent.

Food & Drink Partnerships

Partner with us on snacks, lunch, or drinks for camp days. Local restaurants, food trucks, beverage brands — perfect for visibility and community love.

In-Kind Donations

Have something to offer that's not on this list? Photography, venue use, raffle prizes, services, expertise — we'll figure out a way to make it count.

Get In Touch

Let's build something that works for you.

Pick the tier that fits, propose your own arrangement, or just want to chat. Drop us a note and we'll be in touch within 1–2 business days.
