Private Partnering Opportunities

The Teens in the Driver Seat® program brings together young drivers, parents, school administrators and other stakeholders for a powerful cause: reducing teen driving fatalities. Our presence in schools, in the media and on the web provides a unique and effective opportunity to show our communities what is important to your company.

Our partnerships allow brands to forge a meaningful bond with teen drivers, parents and other stakeholders by investing in saving lives. As a partner, you become linked to the program. It is well established that teen and adult consumers have demonstrated loyalty to companies that care about the things that are important to them.

Our partnership team creates unique and effective campaigns based on your message. If your company wants a grassroots connection to one of the most innovative and effective lifesaving peer-to-peer campaigns in the country, you should contact us. In addition to traditional branding, we can create the opportunity to engage our stakeholders through our summit meetings, training sessions, website and collateral materials.

We have a comprehensive collection of giveaway items designed to keep our message in front of teen drivers. These include T-shirts, wristbands, thumb rings, key chains, resource materials, activities, awards, and contests. Your brand can take its permanent place in the everyday lives of our stakeholders.

Our website allows for a fluid engagement with your brand. As an ever-growing social network, t-driver.com has constantly updated content, including videos, press releases, information, photos, and more. With content created by our visitors, the site is always fresh and relevant.

Whether you represent a mobile phone company, a software company, a music label, an electronics firm, an auto manufacturer or an insurance company, or if you just care about this important issue, please know that our group of partnership professionals have the experience to create an effective program with numerous measurable elements that will help you move your business forward while helping to fund this important cause.
