HECW Optional Donation for Hosting an Event
Event hosts are encouraged — but not required — to make an optional donation to Allies in Energy to support HECW operations. This is not a fee or requirement to participate, but a way to contribute to the sustainability of the program.
Why donate?
HECW is a volunteer-led initiative that relies on community support to operate. Your optional donation helps cover:
- Platform and technology costs
- Marketing and promotion of all HECW events (including yours)
- Volunteer coordination
- Flagship event production
Suggested amounts
- Startups and nonprofits: $250–$500
- Mid-size organizations: $500–$2,500
- Large corporations: $2,500–$10,000+
Any amount is appreciated and all donations are tax-deductible through Allies in Energy (501(c)(3)). Contact [email protected] to make your optional donation.
