Business sponsors

Our business partners help us make sure families have what they need to stay close, stay strong, and stay together.

Some teams cook a meal for families, others sponsor an event, and others match their employees’ gifts. However your business chooses to show up, you’re giving your people something too: a chance to work side by side for something that matters.

Every business brings something different. Tell us what you have in mind and we’ll help you build a partnership that fits your team.

Ways your business can help

Roll up your sleeves. Bring your team in to cook a meal, tackle a project, or host a drive. Volunteering together builds the kind of connection no offsite can, and families feel the difference right away.
Give as a team. Run a fundraiser at your workplace, or match your employees’ donations to double what they give.
Sponsor something. Put your name behind an event or program that families count on.
Give what you do best. Donate professional services, supplies, or household items that keep the House running.
Make every purchase count. Partner with us on a campaign where a portion of sales supports families.

Why partner with us

Your team connects over something real. Working side by side builds the kind of bond you can’t schedule into a retreat. People remember it long after the day is over.

Your people are proud of where they work.
Employees want to know their company shows up for the community. Giving them a way to do that together makes it part of your culture, not just a line in your values statement.

Your business is part of something bigger.
Families come to us from across South Dakota and beyond. When your business gives, you’re right there with them in the hardest stretch of their lives, and your community sees it.
