How do I sponsor a PRAL membership meeting?
Sponsors are not required to be current members of a PRAL chapter. If your sponsorship covers speaker/topic selection, the topic must be a true public relations topic and not just an advertisement for your organization. Sponsors may not sell items at PRAL meetings, though they can mention sales items and give information about products. Someone from the PRAL board will review your offer to ensure it fits within PRAL's mission and, if it does, contact you to add your sponsorship to our schedule.
