Students receiving their awards at Star Maker Awards Gala
NSAL SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
We have so many wonderfully gifted young artists in our area who deserve the opportunity to bring their gifts to the world.
By supporting our nonprofit, your donation will allow us to provide the scholarships, competitions, and mentorship these young artists require to advance to the next stage of their career.
Please help us to continue opening doors for the extraordinary talents in our community.
Below, we honor those who supported the 2025 Star Maker Awards Gala, our biggest fundraiser of the year. And we look forward to welcoming old and new sponsors for our 2026 event!
If you would like to learn more information about joining NSAL, please reach out to me at KirstenStephenson@comcast.net
Sincerely,
Kirsten Stephenson
