FAQ
We are here to answer any and all questions you may have. Please reference our FAQ list below and if you don't see your question, please call or email us!
What is the GVAC Sponsorship Program?
We wanted to create a way for our community to directly support the programs and initiatives that matter most to them. Whether Arthritis Aquatics helped you recover after surgery or Tai Chi has become an important part of your weekly wellness routine, these programs make a meaningful impact every day. At GVAC, we believe donations should feel personal and purposeful. Instead of contributing to a general fund, you can choose exactly which programs your gift supports—helping keep them operational and accessible for others in our community.
How is this different from a GVAC membership?
A GVAC membership provides access to the facility, classes, and amenities for personal use. A sponsorship is a philanthropic investment in GVAC's mission and programs.
Think of it this way:
Membership = Access to GVAC
Sponsorship = Supporting the growth of GVAC
You do not need to be a member to become a sponsor. This is a community-wide opportunity that is open to anyone and everyone.
Why should I become a sponsor?
Sponsorship allows you to make a direct and lasting impact on the health and well-being of our community. Your support helps provide swim lessons for families in need, wellness programs for older adults, life-saving safety certifications, and affordable access to fitness and recreation opportunities.
How do I become a sponsor?
Becoming a sponsor is easy. Simply open our donation page, or click on one of the giving links on this webpage. Using the drop down menu, choose the program or initiative you would like to support. Input an amount that fits your budget, and complete the transaction. Our team will record your gift and ensure you are placed into the corresponding tier and receive your giving incentives.
What if I already give to your general fund? Can I receive the same benefits?
To ensure your gift is recognized as a sponsorship, donations must be made through the designated sponsorship giving link. This is separate from the general “Donate” button located in our website navigation menu. Contributions made through the general donation fund support GVAC as a whole and may be allocated wherever needed most. However, gifts made through the sponsorship program links allow you to directly support the programs and initiatives that matter most to you, while also receiving recognition for helping sustain and grow those specific offerings.
