🎃Looking for Sponsors for the 2021 Macaroni Kid Halloween Boo Baskets

By Carrie Hotte September 24, 2021

🎃 Help us spread some local Halloween fun and promote your business! 🎃

Macaroni Kid Chicopee-Holyoke loves local fun, so we’re going to spread some Halloween cheer in the community with Boo Baskets! The past two years have been rough on our community and this is a safe way for us to pay it forward to our local families and bring smiles to some faces! 

We need your help! 

What are Boo Baskets?

100 local families will get “boo'd” with a basket full of Halloween goodies, including materials from local businesses, on their doorstep. Our volunteers will deliver a basket to 100 lucky families. But it doesn’t stop there. Those families who’ve been “boo’d” will be asked to print out the flyer we’ve created and continue to pay it forward to other families. 

This event spreads lots of community fun, that we desperately need right now, and it will help spread your business throughout our community in a very fun way!)

How will it benefit your business?

  • Reach your TARGET AUDIENCE of local moms. The kids will be so excited about each item, and the moms will be curious about where it all came from.
  • Your logo will appear on the flyer that accompanies each Boo Basket, bringing your business directly into at least 100 local homes. But we anticipate the Boo-ing will spread much further than these initial families, and they’ll be printing out the flyer with your logo too. 
  • Receive 3+ weeks of promotion – with approximately 12,000 impressions for your business
  • We'll do all the work – and you’ll get the credit as one of our sponsors! 
  • We’re going to do an all-out boo basket blitz on social media in the community, and we’ll include your business

PLEASE NOTE: The first 100 Boo Bags will be delivered late-October, so any items you provide for the bags swag will need to be supplied no later than October 20th. Sponsorship opportunities are first-come, first served.
