SPONSOR LEVELS



Interested in becoming a SWE-MN sponsor?

The sponsorship levels are as follows:

Platinum: $10,000 and up
Gold: $5000 - $9999
Silver: $2,000 - $4,999
Bronze: $500 - $1,999


Below is the list of services that come with each donation level. Upon receipt of donation, a company will automatically be put into the appropriate level. A company will stay in this level until the end of the next fiscal year, June 30th. To further explain this, here are two examples:
A. Company X gave $5,000 in November 2008, so that means Company X is a Gold member immediately and at the beginning of FY10. Then in January 2010, the company donates $10,000. In January 2010, the company becomes a Platinum member because its total donations for FY11 are $10,000. The company will stay a Platinum member until the end of FY12, June 30th, 2011. Then let’s say that this company X only gives $2,000 in FY12 (in July 2011), then on July 1, 2012 (the beginning of FY13), the company will drop down to Silver member status.
B. Company Y did not donate in FY09 so at the beginning of FY10, the company is not any type of a member. In February 2010, the company donates $1000, automatically making them a Bronze member. Then in April 2010, the company donates $2,000 more, meaning they donated $3,000 in total for FY10. In April 2010, the company automatically becomes a Silver member and will stay a Silver member until the end of FY11 (June 30, 2011). If the company does not donate any money during FY11, on July 1, 2011, company Y is no longer any type of member until they donate more than $500.
