WHY IS SPONSORSHIP SO IMPORTANT?

Registration fees paid to the City of Hercules Parks and Recreation Department help cover a portion of expenses, they are not enough to fully sustain the program. To continue offering a high-quality experience for our swimmers and families, HPST relies on the generous support of sponsors and community partners to bridge the gap and keep the program accessible to all.

WHAT IS THE SPONSORSHIP MONEY USED FOR?

All sponsorship funds directly support the operation and growth of the Hercules Piranhas Swim Team. This includes essential costs such as assistant coaching staff, swim meet management, training equipment, awards and recognition, team events, and administrative expenses.

IS SPONSORING A TAX WRITE OFF?

Yes, sponsoring the Hercules Piranhas Swim Team (HPST) is generally tax-deductible, as HPST is a nonprofit organization (Federal Tax ID 90-0889115). Sponsorship contributions may qualify as a charitable donation or a business expense, depending on the nature of the support.
