The "best fit" of the evening will be crowned and receive a prize. We expect more than 300 community leaders, stakeholders, and EDEN supporters to attend!
We encourage you to ask your company to consider sponsoring HOMECOMING 2025.
1. EDEN's approach to addressing homelessness and housing insecurities in northeast Ohio works! In 2024, EDEN provided housing assistance to 4,128 households / 7,378 individuals and financial assistance to 797 households / 1714 households. This means that almost 7,400 individuals were not homeless because of EDEN housing programs AND almost 1,800 at-risk people did not lose the housing they had! This is definitely a cause worthy of your support and can be a great way to show the community you care about the quality of life in our community!
2. Cause marketing is an effective marketing strategy that benefits both for-profit businesses and nonprofit organizations. It involves a company partnering with a nonprofit to support a cause, often through promoting your relationship with a nonprofit worthy of support. This approach can lead to increased brand loyalty, a positive public image, and higher sales for the company. Get the most of a sponsorship by promoting your sponsorship of HOMECOMING 2025 through your website and social media!
