Women in AV/IT (WAVIT) will be the recipient of fundraising efforts in the Northeast Regional Service Provider Softball Tournament on May 18, at Eisenhower Park on Long Island.

According to the organization, this event not only promises a day of friendly competition between the teams from Digital Labor Solutions, Exertis Almo, Atlantis Partners but also serves as a crucial fundraiser for WAVIT’s outreach programming. The day will present a unique opportunity for organizations to support WAVIT’s mission while enjoying a day of camaraderie and sportsmanship.

“We are proud to be part of this year’s softball outing, where industry players come together for some friendly competition, but to champion a cause close to our hearts,” said Gina Sansivero, co-founder and president of WAVIT. “At WAVIT, we believe in empowering, educating, and mentoring women in the AV/IT field. This event allows us to further our mission and expand our outreach programs, ensuring more women have access to opportunities in our industry. Come cheer on your favorite team, sponsor the tournament, donate as an individual or simply share the news with your colleagues. Lunch, beverages and laughs will be provided.”

Sponsorship opportunities are available for the event. A contribution of $1,000 offers recognition across various promotional channels — including social media, industry press, newsletters and event signage. Additionally, sponsors can send supporters to the game to cheer on their favorite team, fostering a sense of community and support.

For those looking to make a splash, the Cooler Sponsorship offers exclusive branding opportunities for $2,000. Sponsors will have their logo prominently displayed on all coolers at the event, ensuring visibility among attendees.
