Corporate Sponsorship benefits all involved

Corporate sponsorship is a form of advertising in which many companies will pay to be associated with a certain event or school. The sponsorship in many ways can help a high school or school district as a whole.

First and most importantly, when schools allow a sponsorship they gain massive funding from the company that it partnered with. While gaining an easy source of money, the school can find use for it in many areas, such as repairs, staff, camps, and learning utilities.

Furthermore when it comes to corporate sponsorship, another benefit is for the community. For instance, often times schools will partner with a local company, in turn benefiting both the community and local business. The community does not have to pay as many taxes to the school due to an influx in funding . While the local business will gain advertising, and business. Thus , creating a strong relationship between local businesses and their communities.

Specifically in Aurora, our high school has teamed up with Ganley Chevrolet to not only enforce drug free students but also to allow Ganley an avenue to connect with students and community members. Such corporate sponsorship provides both Aurora High School and a local business numerous benefits.

Lastly, the positive affiliation the corporation and the schools build is undeniable. While the business can prove its care for their schools, community and education the corporation builds positive affiliation. The schools in turn gain positive affiliation due to a boost of credibility towards local businesses or large companies.

Like most proposals their are in fact some concerns that are present in corporate sponsoring. The main concern that may arise is the impact on the players or students. While their school works hard to make the corporate sponsorship work this may entail distracting ads, posters, and logos everywhere they look. The purpose of school is for the children to get an education not to be distracted by business advertisements. The hours of school are limited and if the children are focusing too much on the changing ads they are not staying on task. Additionally, the corporation is allowed to ask for data about the school population. Therefore, allowing the business to create ads that will be most influential in the specific school. This poses as a disadvantage because the data could be misused or take advantage of the youth.

All in all, The advantages that come with corporate sponsorship are too beneficial to deny the right of schools to partner with businesses. The positive outcomes when it comes to finances, events and programs prove the use of corporate sponsoring is a wonderful practice.

Allow me to propose a question. Wouldn't you want to be a part of an accelerated school district? The funding that arises allows the schools to stay safe, updated and clean. With a safe learning environment the students overall learning will advance. Furthermore, when it comes to sports the teams will be provided with updated facilities, equipment and coaching. The funding allows the school to stay at its best. Although some may make the argument that corporate sponsoring does not belong in the school. Truthfully, the use of corporate sponsoring will only allow the schools to improve from the immense funding.

In final conclusion, I strongly encourage the partnership of a business and school district bring upon many benefits that cannot be ignored. I believe that Aurora High School should continue to team up with local businesses.
