Alzheimer’s Prize Sponsorship Program (The Gift That Keeps on Giving to the Donor in the Form of Continuous Publicity) Although anyone may donate any amount of money and designate it specifically towards the Alzheimer's Prize, our Alzheimer’s Prize Sponsorship Program is our way of raising large amounts of money from financially secure individuals and the corporate world towards the Alzheimer's Prize. Of course, we are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization and all donations are exempt to the full extent of the law. This program has 5 levels of Sponsorship and all levels come with lots of publicity in the form of press releases to the media, etc. Each higher category has additional benefits. Of course, if you are a company, we would be more than happy to work with your PR department to create the ultimate amount of publicity for you. Alzheimer's Prize Sponsorsorship may be in the name of a company, or in your name, or "In Honor of" a loved one (who may or may not be a victim of Alzheimer's) as well as "In Loving Memory" of a loved one (who, again, may or may not have been a victim of Alzheimer's).

The 5 categories of Alzheimer’s Prize Sponsorship are: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum and Diamond. The fifth (Diamond) category, will include a naming opportunity for the first Diamond Sponsor (if it's something the sponsor is interested in) and other benefits that will be determined through in-person negotiations.

To become a Prize Sponsor, a minimum Prize-designated donation of $50,000 (fifty thousand dollars) is required. Donations of $50,000 or more towards the prize will be combined in a restricted, prize-designated fund where we will only be able to use the interest for operating costs, educational programs and new programs that may develop in the future. For Companies and Organizations Please note: Alzheimer’s Prize Sponsorship is the most inexpensive form of publicity and exposure you can get for your company or organization – much, much less than most companies' budget for their annual advertising campaign – and with the power of reaching a national audience on a daily basis – even at the lowest, Bronze category – through our website, and the media publicity that we will generate for your company or organization. There are over 5 million Americans today with Alzheimer's disease. When you add to that just the immediate family (not counting other loved ones affected by this disease) you are appealing to over 50 million Americans who will prefer to do business with your company as opposed to your competitor. In addition, your company’s name will be associated with a historic event that will change the world forever. Furthermore, you get to deduct the cost to the full extent of the law as a donation – despite all the publicity benefits to you. Can you think of one good reason not to become an Alzheimer’s Prize Sponsor? All Alzheimer's Prize Sponsors - Individuals (including "In Honor of" and "In Loving Memory of"), Companies and Organizations - regardless of category will:

a. be listed on our website with a link to their website if one exists. b. receive free tickets to the Award Banquet (the number of tickets will depend on the category). c. have their name or name of their company/organization or name of a deceased loved one (“In Loving Memory”) engraved on a plaque that will be awarded to the winner of The Alzheimer’s Prize along with the cash award. d. reap lots of publicity in the form of press releases to the major newspapers and trade-related publications that would make the most sense for each individual/company/corporation as well as to radio and television stations announcing each new Alzheimer’s Prize Sponsors.
