Sponsorship Levels

Resource Rockstar
Hardy Girls annual conferences are truly youth-led! Our Feminist Action Board (FAB) members begin discussing and planning their conference workshops at their very first gathering in August. As a Resource Rockstar, your team is sponsoring a FAB workshop (there are 12 this year), which delivers 1-hour of meaningful youth-led & youth-centered content plus provides take-home resources to all attendees. Each unique workshop is delivered by FAB members 4 times to groups of 20+ students in grades 4-8 over the course of the conferences.

Accessibility All-Star
Like us, your team believes that youth can (and do!) thrive when they have access to safe & empowering spaces. As an Accessibility All-Star, your team will underwrite full and partial scholarships, ensuring that all who wish to attend this Hardy Girls program may do so without financial hardship.

Action Activator
Hardy Girls believes in inspired action and we incorporate creative activities in all of our programs. As an Action Activator, your team is sponsoring a conference Action Spot, which provides hands-on learning activities to all conference attendees. Past Action Spots have included “How to write your legislator!” and “What makes you YOU?”
$250
Brilliance Booster
Coalition building is a Hardy Girls program fundamental. When youth meet each other through our programs, they’re given the opportunity to connect with peers – one or many – on things that matter most to them. As a Brilliance Booster, your team is underwriting the opening and closing FAB & youth attendee coalition-building sessions.
In addition to accepting all major credit cards & e-checks, our secure online sponsorship portal includes an option to ‘Pay Later’. The ‘Pay Later’ option (1) conveys your commitment to sponsoring this year’s Be You Boldly! conferences, and (2) lets us know that a check will be arriving from you/your company (net 15, please). Once we receive payment, you will automatically receive a confirmation email.
For those who prefer a paper only option, please compete this form (downloadable pdf) and include it with your payment.
