Adding Award Sponsors

Sponsors may or may not be involved in an award and may or may not sponsor a prize. The Sponsors tab provides organizations with a free-form way to describe what the sponsor is providing. For example, for the Best Speaker award, Toastmasters International might sponsor free membership for a year for the award winner.

This tab is only displayed if the Sponsored Award checkbox is checked on the details tab. For more information, please see Adding Award Details.
