Title
Councilmember Theresa Gadus asks:
What are the sponsorships the city will support in 2024? How much is going to each group?
How much will be left in that account?
Body
Referral Response:
Some community events we anticipate supporting financially in 2024 are…
Jeep Fest - $25k
2024 Toledo Fireworks - Will be on Thursday, July 4, but the dollar amount is dependent on our private fundraising efforts. The city sponsored $20k in 2023, the total show cost was $50k, with $30k coming from private donations.
African American Festival - $10k
Momentum (Arts Commission) - $10k
Toledo Streets - $5k
Solar Eclipse in Toledo - we are still in the planning phases
We cannot fully anticipate every event we will support in 2024, but the Communications Department can provide council with regular updates at their committee hearings.
Let me know if you have any questions,
Austin Mack
