Barossa Co-op is committed to giving back to the community through sponsorships that have a positive impact and align with our values and vision. Barossa Co-op is built to serve, grow and invest in our community. That’s why we reinvest our profits to members and support local causes that matter to you.
Every year, Barossa Co-op is proud to sponsor numerous community groups and organisations through sponsorship. Historically, each sponsorship round invited local organisations to apply – to pitch why they require support and how much they need.
From August 2022, Barossa Co-op is implementing a new sponsorship approach. We are making this change to make the application process simpler for you. By thinking about your organisation’s needs, you can decide what program tier best suits your immediate and medium-term requirements. We believe this will provide a more sustainable, partnership approach.
The new sponsorship program involves a tiered approach – Platinum, Gold, Silver, and Bronze packages and a new Donation category for those smaller, more immediate needs. We are committed to building partnerships, profiling your business as a Barossa Co-op partner, supporting and giving back to the Barossa community.
Current Sponsorships
How does this change affect you?
Each tier communicates a clear criterion, and your organisation or group should apply based on what best suits your organisation’s needs.
The two rounds (annually) of sponsorship will remain but the application round will commence one month earlier (February and August), to better align with the sporting seasons.
If you’re making a difference in our community through a non-profit, charitable organisation or community group, or you are simply looking for a donation, we welcome your application aligned with one of our tiers.
