Become a Sponsor of CCA

There are many great reasons to become a sponsor of the Capital Cichlid Association. In addition to the benefits outlined below, your support helps sustain our non-profit organization, which is dedicated to advancing the aquarium hobby, educating the community, and hosting engaging events for fellow hobbyists.

By becoming a sponsor, you directly contribute to our ability to host monthly meetings, invite expert speakers, and fund a variety of fun and educational activities.

Sponsorship Tiers

We offer three levels of sponsorship, each providing increasing benefits:

Tier I Sponsor - $100+ Annual Donation

With a minimum donation of $100 in cash, goods (at wholesale value), or services to the club or a club-sponsored event, you receive:

  • Automatic CCA membership for the duration of your sponsorship, granting access to members-only forum sections and club activities.
  • The ability to post new and upcoming shipments of fish, plants, or other aquarium-related products for sale.
  • Your own subforum in the CCA Marketplace, where you can advertise products, promotions, and special offers for club members.
  • Encouragement to participate in the CCA forum to share knowledge and engage with the community.

Tier II Sponsor - $150+ Annual Donation

With a minimum donation of $150 in cash, goods (at wholesale value), or services, you receive all Tier I benefits, plus:

  • Your logo displayed at the top of the CCA forum and social media pages, in rotation with other sponsors.

Tier III Sponsor - $250+ Annual Donation

*CCA Group Buys are coordinated by the CCA Board of Directors or their designees. Tier III Sponsors are entitled to at least one annual group buy at the club's convenience, though the club may also arrange group buys with non-sponsor vendors at its discretion. Local sponsors are encouraged to participate in club meetings, offering special orders or advance purchases for delivery at club events.
