Become a Sponsor

For individuals, businesses and organizations interested in becoming involved, here’s a breakdown of the various programs available:

• Friends’ Organization Donation:

Anyone can become a “Friend” by making a donation. This contribution supports the ongoing preservation efforts of the buildings and trails on Bannerman Island.

• Seasonal Sponsorship:

Individuals or businesses can become seasonal Sponsors, supporting Bannerman Castle Trust programming. Seasonal sponsors will receive recognition during all events providing them with visibility among the thousands of visitors and online audiences.

• Capital Project Sponsorship:

Sponsors have the opportunity to contribute to specific capital projects, such as windows, doors, or masonry. This targeted support allows donors to have a direct impact on the restoration and maintenance of key elements of the Castle and Residence.

Those who prefer to make a tax-deductible donation by check can do so by sending your contribution to the provided address.

By becoming involved, individuals and organizations not only contribute to the preservation of Bannerman Castle but also become integral parts of its ongoing story. The recognition during events ensures that sponsors are acknowledged for their support, and their contributions directly contribute to maintaining this historical Hudson River landmark.

The broad reach of over 10,000 visitors to Bannerman Island and the extensive online presence through the website and social media platforms further amplify the impact of sponsorship, showcasing the support to a diverse and engaged audience.
