On Saturday September 26, 2009, we’re going to be hosting New York City’s inaugural SocialChangeCamp — a unprecedented day-long collaboration between NYC’s tech/social media/marketing/PR pros, and a diverse range of public interest and non-profit organizations.

Event ticket sales will be coming soon — so watch this spot for details in the next couple of days!

The ultimate goal of SocialChangeCamp is to source and demonstrate a diverse range of ways to leverage technology to recruit volunteers, build communities, inspire grassroots movements, reach donors and fundraisers, and facilitate effective advocacy for groups that want to make a big impact… on a tiny budget.

That’s why this year’s theme is “How to Do More with Less: Leveraging Technology for Social Change.”

Through a series of sessions and discussions, we’ll show non-profits, charities, museums, schools, corporate social responsibility teams, NGOs and other socially conscious organizations how to reach out to their communities in inspired and meaningful ways.

As part of our mission to make social media more accessible, and in order to encourage participation, we are committed to presenting this conference at little to no cost to our attendees.

That’s where our sponsors — i.e. YOU! — come in.

We’ve already got some fantastic companies, agencies and individuals offering us support to help defray our participants’ costs — but we’ve definitely got room for more!

Can you help out?

Here are our target sponsorship levels:

$250: Innovator

Sponsorship at this level includes having your logo featured prominently on our website, and at the event, as well as space on the Sponsor Table to display material. In addition, your name will be included in all materials sent out about the camp.

$100: Founder

Sponsorship at this level includes having your name listed on our website, and at the event.

$50: Supporter

Sponsorship at this level includes having your name listed on our website.

If you’re interested, we’d love to hear from you soon — our big day is only two weeks away!

Also, feel free to share this post with companies you think might want to take part through a re-blog, or by passing on the link.

Thanks!

Getting to the NYU campus at the historic Woolworth Building is a snap.  You will enter the NYU campus on the Barclay Street side of the building.

By subway
The Woolworth building is accessible by the following subway stations and lines:

• 4 or 5 trains (Lexington Avenue Express) or 6 (Lexington Avenue Local) trains at Brooklyn Bridge
• 2 or 3 trains (7th Avenue Express) at Park Place
• R train (Broadway local) at City Hall
• E train (8th Avenue Local) at World Trade Center

Plan your route with Google public transit directions. Subway construction and diversions on the weekends are common, so make sure to check The MTA website for any service alerts.

By car
Click here to get Google driving directions. Note, due to construction on the Fulton Street transit hub and at the World Trade Center site, detours and diversions and construction are common. Use your better judgement. A parking garage is available right next to the entrance on Barclay St at 233 Broadway, but can be costly. Call for information about weekend rates.

By cab
Tell your cab driver to take you to the “Woolworth Building” or “Broadway and Barclay”. From there, you’ll just need to walk around the corner.
