Why Sponsor?

Helping Others
When you sponsor the Last Fling, besides helping a wonderful community event to occur, you are helping the non-profit Naperville-area community organizations which the Naperville Jaycees are proud to support. Thanks to the generosity of our Sponsors, the Jaycees have contributed more than $1,000,000 in donations over the last two decades. The last three years have been among our best ever, with donations of over $300,000.

The Jaycees have been instrumental in several major projects in Naperville, including: the first Handicapped Accessible Playground in DuPage County; the Community Events Sign; the permanent Safety Town site; the Riverwalk and the Carillon Bell Tower. Recently the Naperville Jaycees pledged a donation to establish Fredenhagen park. Besides these major donations, we spread our donations among a large group of charitable organizations serving Naperville and its residents, such as Little Friends, The Century Walk, DuPage Children's Museum, Naper Settlement, ChildServ, Naperville Education Foundation and many more. Again, without the support of our Sponsors, these donations would not be possible.

Helping Yourself
Our corporate sponsors know that linking their names to the Last Fling is a benefit to their companies in a variety of ways. The Last Fling is a wholesome, family event, with the entire community participating. The more than 300,000 patrons of the Last Fling are made aware of our Sponsors, and they tend to show their appreciation.

There are more tangible benefits as well. If you sponsor the Last Fling, you will receive:

• Publicity for your company, through recognition in the Last Fling Flyer and in Thank-You ads placed in the Naperville Sun and/or Daily Herald.
  
• Admission to our exclusive Sponsors' Area adjacent to the Main Stage, with complimentary food and beverages, and the best seats in the house to view the Main Stage entertainers.
  
• Depending on your level of Sponsorship, you may be able to sponsor specific Main Stage, Entertainment Stage or Kiddieland performances, or a Special Event. If you sponsor an event or performance, you are permitted to place your company's signs in highly visible locations near the sponsored event, and your company is publicly announced prior to the event or performance. Additionally, your company's name will appear in all publicity related to the sponsored event or performance.
