Posting their logos and a link to their web sites is a no-cost option that has been well received by our corporate sponsors.

We are thinking about approaching local businesses to see if they would be willing to donate $500 - $1,000 each for the project. Other than a sign or plaque acknowledging their donation, I'm not sure what other "rewards" we could offer them for contributing. We are a small museum, and the project budget is about $17,500. Most of that is the construction of new exhibit cases. The idea of naming each case after a business is distasteful to me. How has your museum acknowledged corporate donors in the past? Thanks!
