On the sponsorship team, your role will be to work with individual program teams to develop a unique strategy to approach partners and supporters. This will differ program to program, as each have different objectives and potential incentives for sponsors. This year, we have a few ticket items / goals:
- DojoGrants — launch summer 2024 + academic year 2024-2025
- Currently: $25k for 5 winners
- Expand $ pool three fold — $100k-150k over summer and fall launches
- DojoHouse — 2-3 summer 2024 houses
- Around $30k-40k per house — $100k for 3 houses
- DojoExplore — UofT spring launch + 3-4 fall 2024 launches
- Around $2.5-5k per cohort — $10-12.5k total
- Pop-up events
- 10 events over the next year at $500 each — $5k total
- HQ may help support this + other regional sponsors (so less focus here)
- Retreat ?! — budget TBD
Team structure
- Working closely with the MDs to identify and reach out to sponsors
- Work with PMs to execute on their fundraising goals. They will help with:
- Program-specific asks
- Timelines and deadlines (e.g. we need $20k by Feb for the House)
