Your Access to the Military Market!
The 14th Force Support Squadron provides community service programs that enhance quality of life for active duty military members, retired military members, civilian personnel and their respective family members, and dependents. These programs support our mission by boosting morale, productivity and retention.
By partnering with us through our various Commercial Sponsorship Programs, businesses help provide events that educate and instill confidence in our youth, entertain our personnel and promote a sense of community both on and off base.
Unlike other government programs, our regulations permit us to highly advertise and provide sponsor recognition to your company.
COMMERCIAL SPONSORSHIP AND ADVERTISING
Columbus Air Force Base’s Commercial Sponsorship Programs allow businesses to receive promotional exposure in exchange for financial support, product, or services-in-kind to enhance our base events. Opportunities are available throughout the year either on an event-by-event basis or annual sponsorship of our facilities’ programming. Businesses are permitted to engage in promotional activities on bases only under special circumstances and only through Force Support Squadron’s morale, welfare and recreational programming.
Purchase advertising at one or more of our various venues only available through this office.
For more information, contact Shea Jenkins at (662) 434-2337.
