The event takes place April 3-6. Any business that offers a health-related service to the community (medical- or fitness-related, emotional well-being, or even financial health) is invited to showcase their products and services and/or screen employee candidates at the Wellness Expo and Job Fair on Thursday, April 4. Popular booth ideas include displays, educational or interactive games, healthcare screenings, videos, informal consultations, and giveaways.
“Healthier U is a lively and pleasant venue where sponsors can network with others, gain potential clients, and promote their services,” said Katie Halbert, Healthier U event coordinator. “Sponsorship is a win-win situation for both the local businesses and our students.”
The booth sponsorship levels for Healthier U 2013 are: Platinum ($1,500); Gold ($1,000); Silver ($500); and Bronze ($250), with increasing benefits at each level. All levels include a table(s) and skirting, materials transportation and booth set-up assistance, refreshments, and of course, publicity before, during, and after the event.
