FAQ - Becoming a Sponsor for the Be a Tree Program
Sponsorship allows you to help bring the Be a Tree program to children that would not otherwise receive it and/or to add to the children's learning experience by providing coloring books and other materials to help reinforce the messages from the program.
There are a variety of materials for which you can provide funding. Most of these can be branded with your logo and website or contact information.

We purchase the bookmarks, magnets and postcards from
Vista Print or
Overnight Prints.
You can get current pricing from their websites. They frequently offer
up to 50% discounts. We pass this on to you if we can get a discounted
price.
We will also provide you with the digital artwork for
these if you wish to have your own printer produce the materials. We do
not charge a fee for this.
Who will do the presentations that I sponsor?The
presentations will be done by a licensed Be a Tree presenter from your
local area. We will find a presenter for you. If there is no presenter
in your area then you may choose to donate a Be a Tree teacher kit to
the classroom so that the teacher may do the presentation themselves.

This program will benefit the community by
teaching children, and by extension their families, how to read dog body

and hopefully also reduce the number of dogs surrendered to shelters or
euthanized for behaviour problems.
