Our partnership model delivers measurable results: every heritage tourist spends an average of $132 in local communities, supporting Black-owned businesses, creating jobs, and strengthening the economic vitality of neighborhoods where these stories live. We offer four partnership tiers designed to match your organization's investment capacity and strategic goals, from our Founders Level ($20,000) which provides premier homepage positioning and exclusive naming rights, to our Pioneers Level ($5,000) offering website recognition and networking events. Each partnership tier includes comprehensive benefits: prominent brand visibility across our digital platforms reaching 60,000+ annual participants, co-branded content opportunities that position your organization as a heritage preservation leader, VIP access to signature events like our annual symposium, and detailed impact reports demonstrating how your investment translates to community economic development and cultural preservation outcomes.
