Sponsoring Portland Rugby Club could be a great opportunity for your business!

Here are some key facts you want to consider:

• As a 501(c)(3) registered non-profit organization, all donations to the club are tax deductible (up to an amount equal 10% of taxable income for corporations).
  
  
• The club has a long term objective of purchasing and developing its own playing facilities, which will in turn be open to the local community for use by other organizations, encouraging growth of all sports in the area.
  
  
• From a demographic perspective, given the nature of the sport, it has a natural draw to males age 18-40, but of course with a women's team and a youth team, the demographic profile is much more diverse.
  
  
• Many players in the United States encounter the game for the first time while in college, and subsequently our club has a high proportion of college-educated players, who are all living, working and spending in the Portland area economy.
  
  
• The connection that many players form with the club lasts well beyond their playing years, with many "old boys" attending home fixtures to cheer on the team.These Old Boys (in their prime earning years), frequently have families of their own, and represent a vauable demographic to potential sponsors.
