Event Sponsorships

When you become a sponsor of Meals on Wheels PLUS of Manatee, you will make a positive impact — both on your business and on the local community. At Meals on Wheels PLUS we work with businesses of all sizes and across all sectors. We have strong relationships working with leading businesses, including well-known brands, as well as smaller companies seeking to raise their profile in our community.

Additionally, we encourage our community partners to provide opportunities for their employees to make donations and participate in group volunteering to help our partners meet their corporate social responsibility goals. These volunteering opportunities allow employees to engage in community service and increase engagement with other employees.
