Sponsorship Opportunities
Each year, COSTI serves over 39,000 people through our various programs and services. 84% of these individuals are foreign-born. For these people, COSTI is the first point of contact that they have with Canadian society.
By making an investment in COSTI, not only will your business be aligning itself with an organization with a solid reputation in the community, it will be gaining the ability to broaden its customer base, and strengthen its position in the marketplace.
Toronto is home to people from 170 countries, speaking more than 100 languages and dialects. These diverse communities create a vibrancy that is truly unique, and contribute to the social vitality, economic growth, and prosperity of Toronto. Indeed, Toronto has become one of the world's most linguistically, culturally, and racially diverse communities.
Factor in the growing influence of immigration on the social make up of our community - immigrants make up approximately 50% of this city's population - and it becomes clear that there is no better an organization positioned to help you reach out to these growing cultural and ethnic markets than COSTI.
Through a partnership with our organization, COSTI can assist you in making inroads into these important and valuable markets, and help you position your company to fully demonstrate your commitment to supporting immigrant and ethnic communities.
COSTI's Corporate Sponsorship Program can provide exposure to this constituency for your business through a variety of sponsorship opportunities, and offers a high profile vehicle for delivering your message to the community.
