The New England Chapter of the Society of Fire Protection Engineers solicits financial support from corporate sponsors to assist with the costs of the chapter’s annual golf outing, annual seminar, and monthly dinner meetings. All proceeds from these events support the A.L. Brown Scholarship and the Fire Department Grant programs. The A.L. Brown Scholarship provides financial assistance to students working towards degrees in Fire Protection Engineering. The Fire Department Grant provides financial assistance to New England fire departments for education or training related initiatives.
The support of corporate sponsors compensates for a portion of the costs of running SFPE New England events, maximizing the financial aid the chapter is able to provide to students and fire departments.
Since 2009, the chapter has hosted an annual Golf Outing in September. The outing has continued to grow, raising thousands of dollars for the scholarship fund. Our SFPE Corporate Sponsorship program supports this Golf Outing.
Our signature event and primary fundraiser for the A.L. Brown Scholarship and Fire Department Grant program is our Annual Seminar, which is held every March. The seminar has been attended loyally by 100+ people with the following experience: fire alarm installers, owners, engineers, fire departments, and building officials.
Corporate sponsors also provide funding so that student members can attend our monthly dinner meetings at no charge. This allows the students an opportunity to become involved with the Chapter and network with others in the fire protection community.
Our corporate sponsorship program allows our sponsors to provide financial support throughout the chapter year (June 1st to May 31st), and we offer three tiers of sponsorship. Some levels include registrations for the golf outing, monthly meetings, and seminar, in addition to the opportunity to advertise and exhibit at these events. Details of each tier are provided below. We also offer individual sponsorships for those companies that are interested in supporting individual events.
