2021 Sponsorship Program General Information

Overview

A sponsorship with Portage Youth Softball is an exciting and beneficial opportunity for you, our organization, and the Portage community. We are eager to partner with businesses and individuals/families to ensure the success of the Portage Softball Program. We estimate our sponsors save each player approximately $40 in registration fees per year! Without our generous sponsors, we would have to significantly increase player participation fees to maintain the same quantity & quality of our offerings. In exchange for your valued support, we will work with you to promote you or your business. Together, we will ensure that there is a quality youth softball opportunity for Portage area youth for many years to come.
Proof of non-profit status is available upon request (EIN 86-1325202). NOTE: We are currently awaiting formal approval from the IRS of our 501(c)(3) non-profit status due to our recent reorganization. We have been directed by the IRS to continue operations as if we are approved until we receive formal approval.
