MUST sponsors can gain extensive exposure to Members and thousands of Melbourne University students through a variety of media, product distribution, national and regional competitions, MUST merchandise, snowboarding trips and social events. Sponsors have many opportunities to support MUST, from product promotion giveaways to financial assistance for trips, competitions and uniforms. Sponsors can support MUST in many ways, from free or discount product for fundraising events or club activities to direct sponsorship of trips or other MUST events. We are always open to other suggestions if you feel there is something else you can offer the club that would be of benefit to you as well as the club.
