Annual Sponsorship
An annual sponsorship with Chattanooga Room in the Inn (CRITI) is a year-round partnership that supports safe housing, stability, and hope for women and children experiencing homelessness. Your sponsorship fuels our programs, strengthens our mission, and allows CRITI to serve families every day of the year.
​
As part of this annual partnership, sponsors are recognized throughout the year across various marketing channels and are invited to ChattaDerby, our annual donor and sponsor appreciation celebration. ChattaDerby is not a fundraiser. There are no tickets to purchase, no auctions, and no fundraising ask. It is simply a fun way for us to say thank you and to share the impact your support makes possible.
​
Annual sponsorships may begin at any time of the year. Sponsors who join after each year’s celebration will be included in the following year’s ChattaDerby.
Sponsorship will run for one year from the date of payment/pledge. For example, if your sponsorship is processed on January 7, 2026, it will remain active through January 6, 2027.​

Hosting or participating in volunteer and group activities such as assembling hygiene kits, leading donation drives, or supporting special CRITI projects like our thrift store
-
Providing in-kind contributions of products or essential items for our shelter, including toiletries, cleaning supplies, children’s items, and household goods
-
Offering professional services that reduce overhead and strengthen our programs
-
Encouraging workplace giving or matching gifts to expand your team’s collective impact
-
Partnering through ticketed or special events by designating a portion of ticket or event sales to support CRITI
-
Featuring CRITI as your nonprofit partner through in-store or point-of-sale give-backs, such as percentage-of-sales days or round-up campaigns
