Become a Friend or Sponsor

To discuss any level of support, please contact Kara Campbell at kara@bricksbythebay.net.

We've expanded our support levels!

Here are some ways you might support Bricks by the Bay:

• Donate money.
• Donate LEGO sets for door prize drawings.
• Donate LEGO sets, MOCs, or related products or services for our silent auction fundraiser.
• Donate services (free or discounted/at cost) to assist in running the convention.  For example - printing flyers or programs; printing t-shirts; providing website design and support.
• Sponsor the awards for a MOC category - provide support for the trophies as well as prizes for the winners.
• Sponsor a contest or game – provide sets that participants will use in the contest/game.
• Donate sample products to be given to each attendee in their “goodie bag.” We will need 525 items (500 expected attendees + 5% extras).
• If you're also a vendor, instead of donating physical products you can provide vouchers to attendees to be redeemed at your booth for an actual product, or a coupon for a discounted purchase.
• Other ideas? Let us know!

Support can be General or Directed.  General support means we will use your gift as best fits the immediate needs of the convention.  Directed support means your gift will be used exclusively as you intend - e.g., for a specific service, for a specific game or theme, etc.
 

Benefits of Becoming a Friend or Sponsor

In addition to our gratitude, you can expect the following recognition, depending on the level of support.  Directed support may receive extra recognition depending on the specifics (e.g., during a game or workshop).  For any level of support, you may send us promotional materials to be included in each attendee's goodie bag.  We will need 525 items.  For more information please contact Kara at  kara@bricksbythebay.net.
