CHNEP calendars

Donations are appreciated. Many people have asked how they can buy the calendar. With the 2008 calendar, the CHNEP began asking for donations to help defray production expenses. Any donations received above the cost of producing the calendar will help with other outreach projects through our wide network of partnerships.

We would like to publicly acknowledge your donation. After your donation is received, you will asked if it is okay to include your name or if you prefer to remain anonymous. All donations of $100 or more will be acknowledged in the 2013 calendar. (You may wish to be considered a sponsor instead.) All donations will be acknowledged on this website. Donations made prior to this will be posted once each donor gives us permission to list their name.

With the 2011 calendar, the Friends of Charlotte Harbor Estuary, Inc. began accepting donations. The CHNEP is pleased to join the many organizations that enjoy the assistance of a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization. Donations received help defray calendar production expenses and finance our many other education and outreach programs.

To learn more or to make a donation by credit card or PayPal, visit their website at www.CHNEPfriends.org. If you’d like to donate by check, please make it payable to The Friends of Charlotte Harbor Estuary, Inc., add "CHNEP calendar" in the memo line and mail to:

Friends of Charlotte Harbor Estuary, Inc.
PO Box 2245
Fort Myers, FL 33902-2245.

Checks made payable to SWFRPC and sent to the CHNEP office are also accepted. The fiscal agent for the CHNEP is the Southwest Florida Regional Planning Council, a 170(c)1. Donations made to SWFRPC are tax deductible as they are exclusively for a public purpose. If you'd prefer, you can send a check made payable to SWFRPC to:

Thank you.

Sponsors: Over the years it has been suggested that we accept sponsorships to offset printing and distribution costs of the calendar. We offered this opportunity for the 2012 calendar. Both Mosaic and CF Industries sponsored the calendar by providing $2,500. Each company provided a 27” ad that both acknowledged the beauty of the natural environment and helped implement the CCMP.

For the 2013 calendar, the sponsorship opportunities will again be available to partners (citizens, organizations, non-profits, governmental entities, corporations, etc.) that highlight or support the beauty of the natural environment and implement the CHNEP Comprehensive Conservation Management Plan (CCMP), our 20-year plan to protect the natural environment. The sponsor possibilities are greater this year with placements sizes in 1” increments ($100/inch) ranging from 1”x1” for $100 up to 12” wide x 9” high for $10,800.

Please let us know if you might be interested in supporting the CHNEP 2013 calendar. For more details, please contact Maran Hilgendorf (866/835-5785 ext 240, mhilgendorf@swfrpc.org). Thank you.
