Sunfield Area Sponsors Of Programs For Youth "SPY's"
Corporate Sponsorship Program

The Sunfield Area Sponsors of Programs for Youth are seeking businesses and individuals interested in establishing a long-term community building relationship with our organization.

The SPYs are a community service/charitable organization founded in 1975. We are a Michigan non-profit corporation (#799014), and are a certified 501(c)(3) tax exempt entity (Federal ID# 38-2395822), which means contributions to the SPY's are fully tax deductible. Though centered in Sunfield, our membership encompasses and draws from the surrounding communities and is open to anyone. We currently have over 75 active members.

The members are engaged in providing the activities necessary to develop leadership skills, team building, as well as a proper sense of values in the children of our community. We are concerned, active adults working towards this united goal. These attributes, properly provided, will repay the community - its citizens and businesses - manyfold in the future.

To attain the financial goals that enable us to sustain the various youth activities we provide, the organization holds fund-raisers throughout the year. Contributions from the membership of time and labor, membership dues, along with individual monetary donations through the Scholarship Fund, the Youth Activities Trust Fund, and United Way designations, contribute to the success of our organization. There are no paid positions within the organization. All labor is donated. This includes the invaluable support from spouses and friends.

The money raised by the SPYs is used for:

   • The total underwriting of all costs associated with every organized youth
      sports program provided in the area - both boys and girls - covering all age
      groups, which includes:

        • Softball
        • Baseball
        • Football
        • Soccer
        • Basketball
        • Wrestling
        • Golf

Additionally, we provide educational computer software and hardware for the elementary school, playground equipment, village parks maintenance and improvements, college scholarships, sponsorship of the school's "March Is Reading Month" program, and other community/school needs brought to our attention and are within our capabilities to meet.

To continue to meet the ever-growing requirements to support the area youth needs, we are seeking interested businesses and private individuals willing to partner with us through our "Corporate Sponsor" program.
