PARTNERS
Through the generosity of sponsors, the Rhode Island Civic Leadership Program and its Summit are offered at no cost to participating students.
Individuals or organizations who are interested in sponsoring the RI Civic Leadership Summit can reach out to Eileen Sweeney, Director of Community Outreach and Engagement, at esweeney@sos.ri.gov. Donations can also be made online through the Rhode Island Foundation here. Sponsorship opportunities are available at all financial levels.
“As a proud supporter of the inaugural Summit, Beacon was thrilled to provide students with the opportunity to learn how to take part in Rhode Island’s longstanding tradition of civic engagement.”
