Contribute as a Funder

We always welcome funders. While the Annual Summit & Festival attracts the most attention, we have other programs year-round that could match your vision better for you as an individual or as a business. We encourage people, organizations, and businesses to support Story Crossroads either as a help to our nonprofit or as a marketing possibility. 

We accept funding year-round. You can focus on event-specific opportunities such as the Annual Summit & Festival, outreaches, or general operations.
