Dear Potential Sponsor:

We wish to invite you to celebrate with us as a sponsor for our fifth triennial conference that will be hosted by Northeastern University’s American Sign Language (ASL) Program and Deaf Women of Color (DWC).

Our theme is: “Breaking Walls: Exploration and Self-Empowerment”

This unique conference will explore resourceful education through the advocacy of National Deaf People of Color’s (NDPC) workshops and special interest groups. Another focus will be to inform underrepresented Deaf People of Color (DPOC) of the issues relating to their education and community advocacy.

NDPC Conference will also offer keynote speakers, workshop presenters, exhibition booths, entertainment and a gala event. We look forward to a successful conference and would like for you to join us as a sponsor.

In making a sponsorship commitment, your company/organization will be assured exposure, recognition, and celebration for your contribution to National Deaf People of Color Conference 2020 and its 501© (3) tax-exempted (ID: 01-0944286) organization, Deaf Women of Color (DWC) and its global allies.

Please review the sponsorship levels below and consider selecting one. However, if they do not fit within your company/organization’s capabilities to contribute, please do contact us as we still would love to work with you to make sure that you will be appropriately recognized for your support.

Thank you for taking the time to consider sponsoring DWC and NDPC Conference 2020!

Sincerely,

National Deaf People of Color Conference 2020 Committee
