Corporate Involvement

San Diego River Park Foundation share a strong commitment with the business community to improve the quality of life in our communities. We actively seek to form partnerships which engage people in creating the San Diego River Park and caring for our community, including the San Diego River.

4 OPTIONS

1. Join the Corporate Partners Program

Annual Membership

• $10,000 Patron
• $5000 Sponsor
• $1000 Benefactor

Charter Membership (One payment with lifetime benefits)

• $25,000 Charter Partner
• Charter members will be asked to renew agreement on a 5 year basis. No payment needed to renew.

We take an "investment" approach to working with our Corporate Partners. We believe that the River Park makes good sense for our community, for our environment, for our quality of life and for our future. We seek Corporate Partners who share this belief in the River Park.

Our Corporate Partners play a vital role in making the River Park a reality by providing funding for the development and implementation of projects. Whenever possible, Corporate Partner Program funding is leveraged for grants and other funding- often at a ten to one ratio. We think that is a good investment.

Corporate Partners meet directly with the River Park Foundation Executive Director to discuss River Park planning and the status of associated projects.

Partners are recognized on our web site, at events supported by their donation, in newsletters and in promotional materials as well as invited to an annual Corporate Partners Luncheon with SDRPF Directors and recognized as sponsors of the annual San Diego River Park Foundation Anniversary Celebration. Membership benefits are based upon the donation level. For details and discuss how you might be part of this program, contact River Park Foundation Executive Director, Rob Hutsel, at 619-297-7380 or by email at rhutsel@sandiegoriver.org.
