RBWN welcomes Awards Dinner sponsors and journal advertisers. Our sponsors and advertisers will be prominently featured in dinner materials aimed at a targeted market of hundreds of business owners and professionals throughout Rockland County. This year's journal will be better than ever, including the RBWN Directory.. Here is the Sponsor/Journal information and form with pricing and ad requirements for sponsors and advertising in the journal, and on our gift bag.
Each year, RBWN awards scholarships to provide tuition assistance to a female candidate graduating from high school and enrolling in an undergraduate program in the fall. Names of the recipients will be posted soon.
As part of this year’s fund raising efforts we will hold a very special Silent Auction. We hope that you and or your company will participate by donating an item, or items, to be auctioned at this event. We have set a suggested retail value of $100.00. If you are unable to provide an item or items equal to the suggested retail value, we will be happy to bundle items donated by members or sponsors in order to meet the minimum suggested value.
This year we have a new, very chic gift bag. Click here for more information and to purchase ad space on the bag.
