The Long Beach Board of Harbor Commissioners on March 25 approved 220 sponsorships totaling $895,200. The Port of Long Beach’s community sponsorship program funds community events and activities that help inform residents about the port. The awards will support a diverse variety of community nonprofits centered on the environment, education, social justice, the arts and historic preservation.
This award is the second of three calls of the fiscal year of 2024; of the applications, 42% were first-time requests. To satisfy demand for community funding, the board approved a $2 million sponsorship budget for the 2024 fiscal year that began Oct. 1.
The next open application period for sponsorships will be May 1-31; find out more at polb.com/sponsorship.
Among the events and programs sponsored in this week’s awards are Children’s Theatre of Long Beach’s “Pirates of Penzance,” the Cambodia Town Film Festival and Willmore City Heritage Association’s Earth Day Festival.
A list of the approved sponsorships can be found here.
The port accepts sponsorship applications three times a year, in January, May and September.
