Why Sponsor QAM Projects?

Carrying out an ambitious project such as the Québec Aerospace Museum is a bit like constructing a building: a multitude of bricks are needed and each brick has its own importance. In the case of the QAM, each elementary project represents a brick that will ultimately serve to create a showcase for the aerospace industry that will be of interest to the general public and, in particular, to younger generations.

The financing of these elementary projects is therefore crucial. This is why aerospace companies as well as individuals and other foundations are called upon to sponsor one or other of these projects. Of course, each sponsor will obtain in return visibility in the QAM's communications (website, press releases, corporate brochure, MAQ-Express newsletter and social media) in addition to the satisfaction of having contributed to the development of the museum project in its together.

Sponsorships Sought

You will find below the inventory of the projects for which we are looking for a sponsor. A brief description of the project and the amount of the sponsorship are listed for each project.

It should be noted that the majority of projects fall within the framework of the objective of promoting science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM), and will occur in collaboration with educational institutions. By supporting these projects, you will contribute to the perseverance, the acquisition of experience and the development of the skills of the students of these institutions.

Note that for each sponsorship we will issue a receipt for tax purposes, in addition to ensuring that the sponsor has high visibility in QAM publications and social media.

It is also possible to dedicate part of a corporate membership fee to sponsoring a specific QAM project. This allows you to support our organization in two distinct ways. For more information about corporate members, click here.

For QAM, there are no small or big projects. Any support will be appreciated knowing that it represents an important brick helping to build the Museum.

If you have any questions about sponsorships or about corporate memberships, please do not hesitate to contact us. We will be happy to answer you.
