Partner — Esperanza Fields Foundation

Who this is for

A company that wants its name on a local field, not a national ad buy
A family foundation that wants kids in a specific town to have a place to play
A municipality or a private landowner that needs a named partner before it can say yes

If you are a town looking at a project, start with a conversation. We will not email your Parks & Rec department unless you ask us to.

What a sponsor actually funds

Field rebuilds and simple upgrades (turf, lights, a court, a playground, an indoor rec box) on town-owned or privately owned land
Access: scholarships, open hours, and programming so athletic opportunity is for everyone, not only the kids who can already pay
The packet a town or owner needs: a simple 3 / 5 / 15 mile look at programming, field deficiencies, competitors and partners, ease of travel, and what hotels, restaurants, and gas stations see when people come play

We do not list MLB, NFL, or MLS as partners. We do not list a completed field we have not built.

How the deal works (plain English)

The field sits on town land or a private parcel. Either can work.
The foundation helps raise naming-rights and multi-year sponsor money so one check-writer is not carrying the whole project.
We have relationships that bring in corporate sponsors and private financing that works in public-private (P3) models. That is structure, not a sale of the field.
A site-management company is to be formed; it is not operating today. Towns own the fields. That future operator could maintain and program a site so a town can service a note, or a private owner can keep the lights on. That company is not this charity.

Speed is the point. Towns stall when the packet is vague. We show up with one.

Ways to show up

Name a field

Multi-year naming on a town-owned or privately owned site. Price is set per community and per field, not from a national rate card.

Local season sponsor

Scoreboard, dugout, lights, or a program season in one municipality. Built for the businesses already in that town.

Access fund

Underwrite open hours or scholarships so a kid’s ability to pay is not the filter.

In-kind

Turf, lights, construction, or professional time. We will receipt what the foundation can legally accept.

We will not invent dollar tiers on this page. If you want a number, we will write it for a specific field.

Who we are already talking to

Relationships in motion, not closed gifts:

Colorado Rockies ownership and the Colorado Rockies Foundation
Tallgrass
York Space Systems (Rockies partner; no Esperanza gift yet)
Local businesses in each town we walk

If you are one of those companies, or you want to be, email Ryan or book a 30-minute intro.
