"LiveWell Montrose Olathe signed up to be a Gold Level Sponsor of TBR earlier this year.
Honestly, at first, I was a little skeptical about how much our organization would gain from this
$500 sponsorship, but after a little more than two months I could not be happier with our
investment! The individual TBR memberships are a valuable benefit for our employees and
volunteers, and our organization has already received over $3,000 worth of high-level
professional volunteer time. That is a tremendous ROI and allows us to help build a
worthy community institution.
Moving forward, we will be encouraging our members, volunteers, and partners to join TBR. Indeed,
I would encourage any organizational leader who wants to stretch their resources, increase their
ability to engage and retain skilled volunteers, and build the community to invest in a TBR
sponsorship."
