WHY

Events like TEDxKidsElCajon do not happen by itself. Like all other TEDx events, we rely on the generosity of partners for financial support and in-kind contributions. Our history with partners has been remarkable, and we invite you to be part of this tradition this year.

As a partner, your organization will align with one of the most recognized and respected brands globally. On YouTube alone, TED reaches over 24 million subscribers, and every talk given at TEDxKidsElCajon is on the Official TED YouTube Channel. Yet the impact and connection from your partnership is profoundly local. Every year, the event draws over 1500 attendees from the Greater San Diego and East County Community. Including leaders from the academic, business and civic sectors as well as students and their families. Moreover, you will be supporting a generation of thought leaders. Over this past decade, over 200 student speakers have taken the stage to share their ideas that bring hope, inspire change and drive us to action.
