Corporate Partnership

Partnering with the New England Gator Club through sponsorship offers your company a unique opportunity to connect with a diverse and dynamic group of University of Florida alumni in Boston.

The New England Gator Club is a 501(c)(3) organization, so all sponsorships are 100% tax deductible.

By aligning your brand with our impactful events and initiatives, you gain exposure to a broad demographic of over 6000 alumni, fostering lasting connections within this thriving community and showcasing your commitment to education, community engagement, and the spirit of the Gator Nation in New England.

Join us in making a difference and elevating the experiences of our passionate and educated membership.

Sponsor a Merch Item

One of the main ways the New England Gator Club raises money is by selling custom merch.

Sponsoring a merch order can be a way to increase your brand’s visibility while furthering the impact of club merch sales.

Sponsor a Watch Party Drawing

Our signature events in the fall are our football watch parties, which often draw in over 100 people per week.

Each game, we hold a drawing, where attendees can purchase tickets in exchange for a chance to win a prize.

Your donation of a raffle prize is tax deductible, and can expose your brand to our audience.

Donate a Wish List Item

You can donate an item to help us with the day to day operations of the club.

  • iPad

    • We sell merchandise using Square, which only has an iOS app for in person card sales. We are currently processing transactions using our personal devices, but it would remove friction (especially for board members who use Android) for the club to have a dedicated device to use as a Point of Sale.

Gator Nation Giving Day

Over the past 5 years, Giving Day has mobilized the Gator Nation to support causes at UF that foster innovation and growth to empower the next generation for a life of broad and meaningful impact.

Since 2019, Gators from around the world have pulled together to contribute more than 100,000 gifts — of different amounts — during Gator Nation Giving Day.

In 2024, New England Gator Club raised over $2,100 for our scholarship on Gator Nation Giving Day.

  • A matching gift encourages alumni to give on Gator Nation Giving Day.

    With a matching gift, you offer to match donations dollar for dollar, up to a certain amount.

    The deadline to set up a matching gift for 2025 Gator Nation Giving Day will be in January, 2025.

  • Similar to a matching gift, a challenge gift encourages alumni to give on Gator Nation Giving Day.

    Instead of matching a dollar amount, this type of gift is unlocked when a certain number of donations is reached. For instance, $1,000 after 100 gifts.

    The deadline to set up a challenge gift for 2025 Gator Nation Giving Day will be in January, 2025.

Make a Cash Donation

  • Donating to our operations fund helps us keep the club running.

    All donations to the operations fund go towards club programming. Our organizers are unpaid volunteers, so you can be sure that your donation is going to where it’s needed most.

    This kind of donation helps us develop new merchandise, organize larger and more diverse events (such as an admitted students brunch or a ski trip), and provide other member benefits such as drink tickets at select events.

  • A donation to our scholarship endowment is a great way to maximize the impact of your dollar.

    Every dollar donated to our endowment is invested, and the returns are used to fund scholarships for students from New England.

    The best part: because only the investment returns are distributed as scholarships, your impact lasts forever.
