GET A GIRL TO GRAND

Sponsor a girl's way to Grand Assembly!

Grand Assembly is a great experience for Rainbow girls. Many of our members will recall an anecdote from Grand Assembly when you ask them about their favorite Rainbow memory. Girls who attend Grand Assembly are also inspired to continue as engaged members in Rainbow. For these reasons, Assemblies conduct fundraisers each year for the sole purpose of helping the girls to cover their cost of attending Grand Assembly. The fundraising can be difficult though and frankly many of our girls who would love to go find themselves unable to afford it.

We have been so fortunate to have members of our Rainbow family offer to sponsor a girl’s way to Grand Assembly in recent years. Much to our delight, the number of interested individuals is increasing. We have decided to formalize this phenomena with our new ‘Girls to Grand’ sponsorship program. We’re excited to make it easier than ever to help our family support our active members. 

Want to be a sponsor?

  1. Complete the sponsorship form on the website and mail your payment.

  2. Ohio Rainbow will issue you a charitable receipt for your donation

  3. Ohio Rainbow will identify a deserving girl who will be the beneficiary of your generosity

  4. Ohio Rainbow will grant your sponsorship to the recipient with acknowledgment of your contribution (unless you opt to participate anonymously)

In the event the beneficiary does not go on to attend Grand Assembly, the beneficiary will receive the opportunity to elect to use the funds for the next year or the funds will be matched with another deserving girl. 

Want to nominate a girl?

Nominations must be submitted by an Advisory Board Chairman or Mother Advisor of any Assembly.

Nomination form

The Identification Process:

  1. All Advisory Boards will be called upon to submit nominees for consideration by submitting a standardized form which confirms the girl’s upstanding affiliation with Rainbow, her interest in attending Grand Assembly, and her inability to attend unless financial assistance is offered to her.

  2. The Executive Committee will review the applications to confirm that all candidates are deserving and in need of a sponsorship. All confirmed candidates will then be eligible to receive a sponsorship. 

  3. The Executive Committee will seek to match as many candidates with assistance as possible.
