Sponsor | Naples Botanical Garden

Like our many volunteers and donors, our corporate sponsors make possible the Garden’s ongoing work in providing a place of beauty, knowledge, and activities for residents of our community.

There are a number of sponsorship opportunities available, all of which offer high visibility in the community. As always, we work with our corporate sponsors to customize the benefits based on your company’s individual needs and requests.

From regional advertising and on-site visibility at the Garden, your company will be recognized in a multi-faceted marketing campaign that promotes the event, Garden, and community. The Garden’s development and marketing staff can work with your company to create an engaging strategy that maximizes exposure for both your company and the Garden.

Naples Botanical Garden has many sponsorship opportunities and levels. Consider partnering with the Garden today and make a difference!

Sponsoring Arts & Culture

Each year the Garden features Night Lights in the Garden, two or three large exhibits, and performances in the Garden.

Night Lights in the Garden presents a wonderful opportunity for local businesses and corporations to offer support for a highly attended and publicized event.

During the months of January, February, March, and April, the Garden features one or two large exhibits.

Sponsoring Youth & Adult Education

Sponsorships in support of our educational programs truly make an impact in the community. Both the adult and youth education programs are growing and your sponsorship can be part of this success. Whether you sponsor the Garden’s hands-on program, Collier Greens, which provides the resources to help start and grow school gardens, or a field trip for children from the Collier County Public Schools to visit the Garden, your support makes a difference.

All of our adult classes, Lifelong Learning in the Garden, are available to the public. Your business or corporation could sponsor one or more of these events—from hands-on workshops to more formal lectures.

Sponsoring Fundraising Events

Hats in the Garden – the most talked about event of the year—is both a spectacular party to attend, and a great way to sponsor Naples Botanical Garden. The annual Hats in the Garden fundraiser is a stunning millinery display of over 500 fashionable guests who enjoy a delicious luncheon and a fabulous runway show of red carpet designs.

Soon to be of equal popularity is our April Foolin’ in the Garden Gala, which will surely awe and amaze with surprises at every turn. Enjoy cocktails and hors d’oeuvres among enchanting entertainers followed by dinner and dancing at the Garden.

The Garden Open, held every spring at Windstar on Naples Bay, features a luncheon and shamble-style golf tournament followed by an exciting evening of cocktails, dinner, and fun.

Corporate sponsorships for fundraising events range from $3,500 to $50,000. There are also various underwriting opportunities.
