Are you planning a community event or creating a non-profit organization? Paraiso Tropical is proud to help growth the community by providing support.
Paraiso Tropical Sponsorship Guidelines & Application
Paraiso Tropical Ltd is committed to supporting non-profit agencies and charitable organizations making a positive difference in our communities.
When donating items or sponsoring an event, consideration is given to the location of the organization, scale of the event, inventory of items available and whether the item(s) will be used in a raffle or auction.
Paraiso Tropical is unable to grant all requests and is only able to donate to any organization once per calendar year. While we would like to be able to grant each request, it’s not possible. As a result, we have established a charitable giving policy to make maximum impact from donated dollars.
