Define the relationship

A sponsorship may involve visibility, promotion, or other agreed benefits. It is governed by the parties’ terms and is not automatically a grant or a charitable donation.

Prepare a proposal

Clarify deliverables, timing, name/logo use, cancellation, and payment terms. Tax treatment depends on the arrangement; consult a qualified tax professional if needed.
