Marketing Support and Sponsorships

Raising Money or Planning an Event? Let BEK Pitch In!


At BEK Communications, supporting organizations that strengthen our communities is at the heart of who we are.

As a member-owned cooperative, we’re committed to enhancing the well-being and vitality of the areas we serve. We actively support efforts that promote education, opportunity, and a shared commitment to community well-being.

Sponsorships are available to eligible organizations that are tax-exempt, nonprofit, or community-based, and are located within our five-district cooperative service area, as shown on the district map.

Sponsorship requests must be submitted through the online form at least 30 days before the event date.

All requests are initially reviewed by the BEK Marketing Department. Requests for larger events or specialized items may require additional processing time and management approval. Each request is evaluated individually, and support may include financial contributions, services, or materials, depending on availability and scope.

If your request involves community-owned businesses (such as cafés, grocery stores, or motels), community facilities (like ambulance services, fire districts, or senior centers), or community-based, not-for-profit projects (including school or youth initiatives), you may also be eligible for support through the Community Partnership Program (CPP) — a structured initiative developed by the BEK Board of Directors to meet the current and future needs of the communities we serve. We encourage you to learn more and apply at bek.coop/cpp.

All contributions are provided at BEK’s discretion.
