Sponsors

We want to thank all of our sponsors for their many contributions to the success of this project

This project is so much more technically advanced, functional and beautiful because of the support and contributions we have received from our many sponsors. These sponsors have joined with us in our mission to constantly explore newer and better ways to achieve a viable, sustainable future. Together - architects, designers, craftsmen, engineers, manufactures, local governments, bankers, local businesses and community organizations - are proving that through dialogue and mutual support, we are all moving toward creating new models of green building.

Sponsorship communications and acquisition:

The Sponsorship Program was coordinated and lead by Mike Brenesell and Michael Stevens. They were responsible for designing the program, reaching out to sponsors and coordinating communications. They also provided sponsorship development, website development, public relations and promotional support on this project. Through their efforts, the project was able to reduce its overall budget and gain exposure locally and nationally via various trade channels.
