Why Become a Community Partner?
As a Waterside community partner, you play a vital role in creating meaningful opportunities for local youth. You’ll be recognized across our website, social media, in our newsletter, and at events, with branding opportunities that connect your business to a mission-driven audience. More importantly, you’ll be making a lasting impact in the lives of the young people we serve.
With the current uncertainty around institutional funding, community support is more critical than ever to keep our programs thriving. By becoming a community partner—joining esteemed supporters like Bayer and Mechanics Bank—you play a direct role in empowering youth with hands-on job training, outdoor adventures, and life-changing mentorship. Your annual support ensures that young people continue to have access to the resources and experiences they need to thrive. Contact us to learn more and start your annual commitment to youth development.

We also welcome in-kind sponsorships from businesses that can provide nutritious food for youth or gear for our outdoor programs—because well-fed, active youth are the foundation of a healthy community. If your company provides matching gift donations, that’s another great way to support us and amplify your impact (check here to see if your company participates!).
Plus, we’re always open to ideas and new partners.
