WHAT'S AVAILABLE
DONATION, SPONSORSHIP & NAMING RIGHTS
Partner with Chestermere
Donors and sponsors help shape the spaces, programs, and events that make our community amazing. Through transparent, mutually beneficial partnerships, you can leave a lasting mark on the city by the lake.
Chestermere is open to partnership. The City welcomes businesses, organizations, and individuals as valued partners who contribute to the quality of life and vibrancy of our community — whether that means sponsoring an event, supporting a beloved park, or putting your name on a landmark facility.
THREE WAYS TO GET INVOLVED
Find the partnership that fits
01
Sponsorship
Provide financial or in-kind support for a City asset, program, or event in exchange for recognition, marketing, and promotional benefits.
02
Naming Rights
Have your name associated with a City asset, event, or program for a defined term — from a single feature to a flagship facility.
03
Donations
Make a voluntary gift of funds, goods, or services to support City initiatives — including in-kind contributions, bequests, and estate gifts.

Opportunities range from supporting recognition to full naming rights, and vary by asset. The City's most significant facilities and parks involve a public process and Council approval. We don't publish set prices — the right contribution is based on fair market value at the time of the arrangement. Reach out and we'll walk you through what's available.

OUR COMMITMENT TO YOU
Partners come first
The City treats every donor and sponsor with integrity, transparency, and respect — guided by best practices in philanthropic stewardship.
- Your privacy is protected, and you may choose to remain anonymous.
- You'll receive clear, accurate information about how your contribution is used.
- Every contribution is acknowledged promptly and with genuine appreciation.
- You'll have a professional, respectful experience from the very first conversation.
- You're always welcome to ask questions before you make any commitment.
GOOD TO KNOW
A few things up front
The City reviews every proposal on its merits and is under no obligation to accept an offer. Partnerships must align with the City's values and cannot imply City endorsement of a product or service, and some industries and content aren't eligible. Our complete criteria, definitions, and approval process are set out in Policy #858, the Donation, Sponsorship & Naming Rights Policy.
LET'S TALK PARTNERSHIP
Start a conversation
Every partnership begins with a simple conversation. Tell us a little about what you have in mind and our Relationship Manager will be in touch — no commitment required. Prefer to talk it through? Give us a call.
