Corporate Sponsorship

Leadership Memphis recognizes our Corporate Sponsors throughout the 2022-2023 year.​

SIGNATURE EVENTS

Everyone wants to be the best. That’s how it’s been with every Leadership Memphis class since we were founded in 1979! We know that a city is only as strong as its community leaders. We also know that we must constantly endeavor to make Memphis a better place by supporting the development of more community leaders.  Join us as we embrace the next 45 years and beyond!

To become a corporate sponsor, please contact Michelle Dooner, Director of Development & Alumni Engagement at mdooner@leadershipmemphis.org, or by phone at (901) 278-0016.

Leadership Memphis tuition accounts for only 55% of our operating expenses, leaving a 45% gap.  We count heavily on our corporate and alumni sponsors to pay it forward each year – to give generously so that others can experience Leadership Memphis.  Every tax-deductible contribution and sponsorship makes a difference, no matter the amount.  Please impact Leadership Memphis with your investment today, so we can continue to develop the community leaders of tomorrow.
