Become a Sunshine Sponsor

We are beyond grateful for your consideration in supporting The Sunshine Stop mission, and the role you may play in creating positive experiences for our employees and their families. If you or your organization would like more information, please contact us via our contact page, and one of our board members will get back to you shortly.

We offer three levels of sponsorship in support of our mission. All Sponsors donating at least $1000 have the option to receive recognition on our website.

  • Fund a Sunshine Squad member for a season! Your donation will help us to fund the wages, insurance and uniforms for one employee for the Summer of 2025!

  • Rays of Sunshine abound! Each sponsorship at this level will help us to make investments in our infrastructure to build our business such as product procurement, point-of-sale development, etc.

  • Want to help us really shine bright? Help us to make larger investments in our future mission which includes a dedicated Sunshine Spot location.

Become a Partner

There are several ways to partner with us. Here are just a few ideas. (To learn more about each item to the right, click on the plus symbol.)

  • We are currently looking for a Host Location for the 2025 Summer Season (June, July & August). We are hoping to partner with a resturant or other local business with a space we could use when you are not operating. We are fully insured and may be able to pay rent. For more details, Click Here for the complete proposal. Or get in touch with us via our Contact Page, and one of our board members will contact you shortly.

  • Are you a sports team, a book club or a group of friends who would like to team up with us for an event? Please let us know.

  • Partner with us to host a Fundraiser or Friendraiser. Golf or Pickleball Tournament, Poker Game, Duck Race, etc. Whether you have an idea or you would like us to help brainstorm one with you, please connect with us via our Contact Page, and we’ll get back to you shortly,

  • We have an active group and love to gather. Would you like to sponsor an employee social at a bowling alley or ice cream shop? Do you have a pontoon you would be willing to share for an evening? Have other ideas? We would love to hear from you! (In case you were wondering, your participation in the social is completely up to you, but is not necessary.)

Attend Our Events

Though we offer summer employment June, July and August, The Sunshine Stop has all kinds of fun events, fundraisers, friendraisers and socials throughout the year. Keep an eye out on our Events Page for the schedule.

Volunteer

Join the movement. Becoming a volunteer with The Sunshine Stop is one of the most rewarding ways to give. Our volunteers report that working with The Sunshine Squad not only brings joy and enrichment to our employees lives, but to their life as well. If you or your organization would like more information about volunteering, please get in touch via our Contact Page. (Training available in May.)

Shop Our Store

Take a minute to check out all the cool items in our shop. There are fun branded tees, hoodies, hats, key chains, water bottles, and much more. We even have a glass waterbottle that you can have unlimited lemonade fills at any/all of our events! We’re always adding more items, so take a peek as often as you can.

Spread the Word

Of course, we’re a little biased. But we think our little nonprofit organization—The Sunshine Stop—is a pretty amazing endeavor and we would like to get the word out about it. Please share our story, newsletter and website address (TheSunshineStop.org) with your network and any business or school you think might want to get involved. We thank you for your kind gesture!
