Sponsorship Opportunities

Thank you for visiting YCAL’s Sponsorship Opportunities Page.  YCAL provides several key events throughout the year that would be difficult to maintain without the generous support of our event sponsors. 

YCAL events offer a captive audience comprising of local educators, administrators, school board members, students, and various leaders throughout the community.  If you are interested in exploring some upcoming sponsorship opportunities, please see the listings below. 

If you have any questions or would like to discuss some events in more detail, please contact Kevin Appnel, YCAL Executive Director at kappnel@ycal.us or (717) 505-0044.

Testimonials

"Our district partners with YCAL because it offers our students unique opportunities to explore career paths that align with the needs of our local economy while supporting the value of pathway options after high school. Through this partnership, we can provide students with practical experiences, such as internships and job shadowing, complementing their academic learning. YCAL helps us connect students directly with local businesses and professionals, ensuring they gain valuable insights into potential careers while still in school."

- Dr. Scott Krauser, Superintendent, York Suburban School District

"The York Water Company supports YCAL because YCAL inspires curiosity in the students and educators who are drawn to its many programs.  Curiosity stokes the boiler of imagination, and imagination drives ingenuity and adaptability.  We rely upon an adaptive and agile workforce to sustain our 200 year old Company, and YCAL provides the opportunity for students to explore and hydrate their curious minds so that one day they’ll reinvest their talent right here in our community."

- JT Hand, The York Water Company, President and Chief Executive Officer

"

We here at FOX43 are proud to support YCAL because it serves an important role in helping students make determinations about their education choices and career pursuits. Giving them the opportunity to see what is out there as possibilities sets them up for career satisfaction and a lot less time “trying to figure it out”. FOX43 will continue to play a role in YCAL’s important, and beneficial, mission for as long as they will have us.
