Business Sponsorship Program

The Minnesota Service Cooperatives Business Sponsorship Program is open for 2026-27.

Your participation will help us grow and support our academic programming opportunities. This includes the popular Knowledge Bowl and Spelling Bee, which currently impact over 10,000 students across Minnesota.

We help students find their passions by providing high-quality enrichment opportunities that are affordable for families and schools. We spark interests, find hidden talents, enhance knowledge, and give students a chance to try new things. With your help, we can do more!

We've got something in common
Collectively, the nine regional service cooperatives cover the entire state. For more than 50 years, we’ve worked with local governments, educational institutions, and many other organizations in our communities.

MSC supports these entities with programs and services that help fill gaps. We collaborate with organizations to solve common pain points or make good things great; you do too. Together, we achieve more than we ever could alone.

We can help each other
Our members are your prospective customers. This includes connections with 500+ public and private education entities, 87 counties, and more than 2,000 cities, townships, and other government agencies.

Our MSC leaders and staff are in contact with nearly every superintendent in Minnesota's 331 school districts and key members of cities, governments and nonprofit agencies monthly and often weekly. Our programming and communications reach thousands of individual students and families.

Your sponsorship of MSC's work puts you in association with a highly trusted organization that will extend your reach into all corners of the state, providing you with marketing opportunities for various events. Join us in extending the reach of our popular and successful academic programs!
