Sponsor Santa Barbara StoryLab

Sponsors make it possible for more nonprofits to access professional storytelling — especially smaller organizations.

Sponsor options

Equipment sponsor

Fund the cameras, microphones, lighting, or acoustic treatment that make the studio possible. A one-time investment that serves every nonprofit who walks through the door.

Scholarship fund sponsor

Underwrite a set number of sessions per year for nonprofits that can't afford standard pricing. A typical scholarship covers 6–12 sessions annually.

Annual operating sponsor

Support ongoing operations — rent, utilities, maintenance, and staffing — to keep session fees low and capacity steady. The backbone of a sustainable studio.

Sponsor recognition

On-site

Sponsor wall in the studio. Your name or logo visible to every nonprofit that records.

In content

Optional mention in episode descriptions: "Recording made possible by [Sponsor Name]." Tasteful, not intrusive.
