2027 Red Kettle sponsorships
The six 2026 tiers are the starting point for 2027: $5,000 Hope for the Holidays, $3,000 Christmas Cheer, $2,000 Community Angel (all season); $1,000 Holiday Hero, $700 Season of Giving, $500 Christmas Friend (weekly). Confirm 2027 pricing and promised recognition in Inventory & approvals.
Payments use the FOWA Zeffy campaign. Regular locations are listed for six days a week; exact days/hours require confirmation. The Mall is Saturdays after Thanksgiving only: November 27 and December 4, 11, 18. Volunteers are needed at all sites.
Weekly sponsorships cover seven calendar days within the season; the operating schedule still applies. Season dates lock after the first kettle reservation.

Reserved sponsorships
Inventory & approvals
All placements start pending. Record venue permission and verified pricing/benefits before approving a package. Approved packages reserve locations automatically; full tables and same-hole packages stay together.
Catalog verification
Confirmation applies to prices, complete benefits, ticket commitments, social posts and any external rights. Historical status alone does not confirm current availability.
Sponsor payments
Zeffy handles checkout. Refresh reads payments from the 2027 Sponsorship Campaign; it does not charge anyone or change Zeffy records.
Finalized proposals
Campaign payments
Match an unassigned payment to a finalized proposal after checking the payer and amount. A name or matching amount alone never assigns it automatically. Amounts are net of completed refunds; disputed, failed, pending and non-USD payments do not count toward paid balances.
Saved proposals
Drafts shared across devices. Finalized packages reserve inventory and are locked; payment is handled through Zeffy.
