IDL events are made possible through the generous support of sponsors, advertisers, and volunteers. Without their contributions, our contests, conventions, and community programs would not be possible.
We invite you to join our community of supporters. Whether you are an individual, a club, a business, or an organization, there is a way for you to make a difference.
Sponsoring IDL means investing in the Deaf leather community. Your support helps us produce events, maintain our programs, and continue our mission of bringing Deaf and hearing leather enthusiasts together.
Sponsors make a real difference. They help us cover operating expenses, provide ASL interpretation at events, and keep our organization running strong. Every contribution, no matter the size, helps us serve our community better.
Support the Community
Your sponsorship helps fund IDL events, programs, and initiatives that serve Deaf and Hard of Hearing leather enthusiasts.
Visibility
Sponsors receive recognition in our program books and at our events, connecting you with the leather community.
Make a Difference
Every contribution helps preserve Deaf leather culture and build a stronger, more inclusive community.

In addition to sponsorship, we offer advertising space in our program books. This is a great way to reach the Deaf leather community and show your support for IDL.
Program books are distributed at our events and reach a wide audience of leather enthusiasts. Advertisers receive visibility and recognition while helping us produce high-quality program materials.
Advertising benefits include:
Becoming a sponsor or advertiser is easy. We have sponsorship and advertising forms available that outline the different options and benefits. Simply complete the form and submit it with your payment.
We also welcome volunteers. Our events run on the power of dedicated community members who give their time and energy. If you cannot sponsor financially, consider volunteering at our events or serving on a committee.
Every contribution makes a difference. Whether you are a major sponsor, a small donor, or a volunteer, you are helping to keep the Deaf leather community strong.
"Sponsorship is not just about money. It is about showing up, supporting your community, and being part of something bigger than yourself."
Support IDL. Support the Community.
