A Letter From Ken Ham
Dear friend of Answers in Genesis,
Thank you for prayerfully considering how the Lord would lead
you to be a part of the highly evangelistic and God-honoring Ark
Encounter outreach.
In this supplement to the Ark Encounter Exhibits Booklet, you
will ﬁnd a variety of ways you can partner with us through the
exhibit sponsorship program and the wonderful beneﬁts that
come with being an exhibit sponsor.
I look forward to you joining AIG to reach millions of
people with the truth of God’s Word and the life-changing
creation/gospel message.
Sincerely in Christ,
President and CEO
Levels and Key Benefits of
Ark Encounter Exhibit Sponsorship
The Ark exhibits may be sponsored in full or in part at the
levels shown below. Sponsorship donations may be made in full
at the time of commitment, or can be made in installments over
a 12 - or 24 - month period with a faith promise.
Sponsorship level: $10,000 or more
Key Benefits
1. The opportunity to sponsor one of the key exhibits at the
Ark Encounter. Research studies have estimated that
1.2 to 2.1 million people will visit the full-size Ark each year—an
incredible evangelistic opportunity to reach millions of people
with the truth of God’s Word and its life-changing gospel message.
A majority of visitors will come from unchurched families.
2. Opportunity to leave a biblical legacy for this generation and
future ones.
3. Sponsorship name recognition at the Ark on the exhibit sponsorship
wall (optional). Any exhibit that is sponsored in full will also have
name recognition at the exhibit (optional).
4. Tax-deductible donation for the amount of sponsorship gift
[donation receipts provided when sponsorship payment[s] are made].
