Sponsorship Opportunities

The Giving Tree Village during Christmas in Davidson draws over 40,000 visitors from our local community and beyond. The event evokes the magic of a Hallmark Christmas movie, enveloping attendees in an atmosphere of warmth, joy, and the true essence of the season. Your participation as a sponsor will help create unforgettable memories and enable your brand to shine in the hearts of all who attend.

By aligning your generosity with the Giving Tree Village, you are not only endorsing community welfare but also embodying the holiday spirit of sharing, caring, and making a positive difference in the lives of those around us.

The Rotary Club of Davidson has established a nonprofit entity, the Davidson Rotary Charitable Fund Incorporated.

Donations made to the Giving Tree Village may be tax-exempt. Contributions can be deducted under IRC Section 170. Donors who contribute $250 or more will automatically receive a charitable donation letter. For smaller donations, a donation letter will be provided upon request.
