With Professional Fund Raiser
-- Property Consulting Group to Represent Hall of Fame With Sponsorship Campaign --
(COOPERSTOWN, NY) – The National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum announced today that it has brought on
board Property Consulting Group (PCG) to seek and secure sponsorships that support the Museum’s educational mission
to preserve history, honor excellence and connect generations.
PCG becomes the first professional fund raising agency used by the Hall of Fame. PCG will be seeking sponsorships for
a variety of opportunities including Museum exhibits, educational programming and fantasy camp, as well as new
programs developed by the Museum to address specific interest of the Sponsors. PCG, through their established
relationships with other baseball entities across the country, will afford their corporate partners the opportunity to
integrate existing and new programs with the Hall of Fame.
“We believe in PCG’s ability to create relationships that honor and respect the past, present and future of our mission and
values,” said Jeff Idelson, President of the Hall of Fame. “The true benefactors will be baseball fans everywhere as these
relationships will give us and our Sponsors the opportunity to take the fan experience to greater heights through
educational programming, events and exhibits.”
“As a passionate lover of both baseball and sponsorship, I am incredibly excited to answer the call from Cooperstown to
apply our sponsorship methodologies to the game’s most storied address,” said Dan Migala, Principal of Property
Consulting Group. “Our plan is to introduce companies to the Hall of Fame in a meaningful way that results in a mutually
beneficial relationship.”
