Make It Your Business

A Sponsorship Program for Change!

Starting Point is excited to introduce to you our new promotional campaign Make it Your Business!

Make it Your Business endeavors to unite our community by reducing the incidence of domestic and sexual violence in Carroll County by raising awareness and ending the silence of abuse.

Last year alone Starting Point advocates provided more than 20,000 services to Carroll County residents. We couldn’t have done that alone!

Over the years, we have relied on our business leaders to sponsor our fundraisers, helping us raise essential funds for our many direct services. In the past, sponsorship at our events was acknowledged with Facebook posts, banners, email blasts, and in our program. All limited to the timing of the event.

With Make it Your Business we can provide a greater array of appreciation including newspaper and radio ads and yearlong coverage in exchange for your tax-deductible support!

We can all make a difference in reducing the domestic and sexual violence incidence in Carroll County by creating a widespread campaign letting victims know that their community makes it their business to stand with them. Also, by letting perpetrators know that they will be held accountable for their abuse.

In the United States domestic violence costs the economy more than 6 billion dollars according to the CDC. This includes economic losses to small businesses due to absence in the workplace from domestic or sexual violence incidence*.

*Starting Point provides free consultations and curriculum to business owners and their staff to help identify and support a victim in need, create a proactive safety plan for the business (In 2023, two-thirds of mass shootings were linked to domestic violence.), and to support anti-sexual harassment behaviors in the workplace.
