Eielson AFB Force Support Squadron host numerous events that promote morale and enhance the quality of life for attendees. These events offer sponsors and advertisers multiple opportunities to achieve recognition, awareness, and brand loyalty among families, participants, and spectators from both Eielson AFB and the surrounding community.
 
As the Eielson Commercial Sponsorship Coordinator, I invite you to partner with us and take your company's advertising to the next level. Our sponsorship packages and advertising rates allow you to reach your target market in creative ways that produce real results. At the events, sponsors are encouraged to engage with the community and demonstrate their products. If going to events is not feasible, our advertising options on base are numerous and effective. 

When you decide to partner with Eielson FSS, we discuss your unique objectives and tailor our services to fit your exact needs and priorities. We are extremely appreciative for any support from local businesses and are so thrilled that this program allows us the opportunity to give you some tangible benefits in return for your investment in us. 

Sincerely,
Sophie Heckert
Commercial Sponsorship Coordinator

Who We Are

The 354th Force Support Squadron (FSS) is the MWR (Moral, Welfare, and Recreational) Program and does
everything from military IDs to cheeseburgers. FSS is
responsible for all quality-of-life operations on Eielson
AFB. Our facilities provide a supportive and inclusive
environment with regular programs and events which
appeal to a wide range of interests. We offer fitness
and sporting events, club events, youth programs,
family oriented events and much more on our remote
and isolated installation! Events are planned and
executed to support overall military readiness,
productivity, and morale. These events enhance the
quality-of-life for Air Force members, their families, and
those with base access. They are essential for the
overall mental and physical well-being of Eielson AFB.

Commercial Sponsorship

Affiliate your business with our successful programs and events to
increase brand awareness, introduce new products, and develop
long-term relationships. By sponsoring one or more of our events, you can have your company’s name and logo on all event advertising and publicity, along with the opportunity to engage directly at each event. Besides gaining a competitive advantage, your support can lead to loyalty from a population known for its unwavering allegiance. Your sponsorship supports the military community by helping fund the morale, welfare, and recreational activities.

DONATIONS

Donations are not a type of sponsorship, however we can accept
items to support our MWR events, with no expectation of recognition.
