Sponsoring

Business sponsorship of The Lands Council’s April Showers Auction is an opportunity to stand alongside a community that cares deeply about the future of the Inland Northwest. This event brings together conservation advocates, local leaders, and longtime supporters, and friends who believe in protecting forests, water, and wildlife for generations to come.

Rather than a traditional marketing-focused sponsorship, April Showers is about showing up for public lands, for clean water, and for a healthier, more resilient region. Business sponsors play a large role in making this work and event possible by off-setting the costs associated with putting on April showers, and thus helping fund on-the-ground conservation, environmental education for youth, and advocacy that protects the places we all depend on.

Each sponsorship level includes a table for eight guests, offering a meaningful way to gather colleagues, clients, or friends for an inspiring evening rooted in shared values. Sponsors are recognized with gratitude before, after, and throughout the event.

So much gratitude for our 2026 sponsors. This event isn’t possible without you.
