2026 Corporate Sponsorships

Support Kearney Schools All Year Long

The KSD Education Foundation (KSDEF) invites local businesses to partner with us through Annual Sponsorships. This yearlong commitment powers our biggest community events and strengthens every school in the district.

Your support directly fuels two of Kearney’s most exciting, high-visibility fundraisers:

The Harlem Wizards Game – April 11, 2026

A high-energy, family-friendly event that brings students, families, and staff together for a night of entertainment and school spirit.

The Annual Turkey Trot - Thanksgiving Day

A beloved Thanksgiving tradition that draws runners, families, and community members from across the region.

Why Become an Annual Sponsor?

Your investment supports the programs that make the greatest impact for KSD students and teachers, including:

• Classroom Grants that bring creative, hands-on learning to life

• Student Scholarships that open doors to bright futures

• Grow Your Own initiatives that help develop future KSD educators

Every dollar stays right here in Kearney, strengthening the schools and community we all care about.

High-Value Visibility for Your Business

Annual sponsors receive brand exposure at both major events, plus promotion through KSDEF communications, social media, signage, and districtwide engagement opportunities.

A Partnership That Stays Local

Every dollar raised stays right here in Kearney—supporting our students, our teachers, and our future. When local businesses partner with KSDEF, the impact is immediate, visible, and deeply meaningful.
