Partner With Us

Many local organizations choose to support The Cottage by hosting fundraisers, such as an event or percentage night where proceeds are donated to us. We appreciate our community for supporting us in this way. 

Given the nature of our work, it is important to be able to approve the messaging and to know the organizations we are affiliated with. We also like to be involved as early as possible in order to share these opportunities with our wider audience.

We have started a new process for partnering with The Cottage. The information below includes details on how we will promote the fundraiser, how we will grant approval of name and logo use, and includes a section for requesting a Cottage staff member as a speaker at your event.

To host a fundraiser in support of The Cottage

To host a fundraiser in support of The Cottage, please complete the following steps: 

  1. Send an email to Linnea Ionno, Executive Director, at linnea@northgeorgiacottage.org with the subject line “Partnering with The Cottage - Org. and Fundraiser Name.” Please send at least 30 days prior to the fundraiser date.

We cannot guarantee approval of name and logo use if requests are sent less than 30 days out from fundraiser dates. We will not share event information without requests. 

Please include the following details in the email:

  • Your name

  • Your email

  • Your phone number

  • Name of the organization that will be hosting the event or campaign

  • Link to the org. website

  • List or links of social media handles

  • Name and date of the event

  • Attach any marketing materials that have been created

  • How did you learn about The Cottage?

  • Share 1-2 sentences on why you are interested in hosting this fundraiser

  • Are you requesting a speaker from The Cottage at your event? If yes, please share details

Your request will be reviewed and we will be in touch with you ASAP.

2. Once approval for name and logo use is granted, we will send you an agreement to sign. The agreement includes a request for follow-up after your fundraiser takes place.

3. Once signed, we will send our .png logo, and also ask that we have the ability to proof content before it is shared publicly. 

4. We will share fundraiser opportunities through our Instagram, Twitter and Facebook accounts, as well as with our Board of Directors and staff. We must receive final materials one week prior to the fundraiser date in order to share.
