PARTNERS

The Silver Tusk Awards is not a money-making operation. It is currently a DBA of Viktor Devonne himself, rather than a 501c3 or LLC. 

All costs incurred by the award show event, its promotion, and all online services leading to and including the broadcast are paid for by Viktor Devonne himself, with help from sponsors and partners such as yourself. 

Previously, Viktor received donations via crowdfunding sites such as GOFUNDME and individual Venmo and CashApp transactions; however, he wants burlesque fans, businesses, and providers directly to participate and have mutually beneficial relationships with the Tusks.

Compensation for winners via swag pack, is to further illustrate how wanted and
appreciated the entertainers are, and to signify that they are being lifted up by members of their community. And it’s fun to get stuff.

  Viktor Devonne pays for:

· The GoDaddy account that hosts of the website: www.silvertuskawards.com

· Dropbox, Vimeo, Zoom, and Google Drive accounts to host graphics and video he makes; and broadcast rights paid to video performers during the award show

· International and domestic shipping of the Award Bundle packages

· Items within the Award Bundle, including the Tusk charms, framed plaques, and any additional printed or physical promotional material; some item donations are provided at discount and Viktor still has a cost balance to provide.

· Viktor’s work on all social media engagement, video editing, image creation, website edits, collating and mailing the Award Bundle, and broadcast. And lots of other things.

If one of the tiers appeals to you, you get to tell us via the form below and we’ll send you the Google form for payment, timeline of events, details of commitment (yours and ours), and how to get me your materials to us.

We will invite Partners who sign on (depending on your tier), to participate in the Partner elements, from sending us items/literature for the Award Bundle AND what categories are available to claim.

Come November, the categories will be revealed to the public with those that have been claimed by Partners named, as well. Social media blasts, etc. will include information as well.

 Been there. If you want to donate items for the Award Bundle, we’d be delighted to hear about them. Contact us via the form and tell us what you’d like to send in, and what value it may hold. 

For example, don’t got $100 but got $100 worth of merch or $100 of product? That counts, too and we’d love to discuss it. In-Kind donations make the arts go ’round so that is amazing. Consider that there are
approximately 25 bundles, and 25-30 products would be requested (in the interest of anticipating ties, etc.)
