& chance for more)
- parents and friends can sponsor a contestant (as a gift)
- businesses can sponsor a contestant (sponsorship credit on TV)
- performing organizations can sponsor a contestant (great PR for what you
do)
- people/businesses/board members/angels - can donate a "ticket" to the
school or performing organization of their choice - so the
school/organization can feature a contestant
The performer will be listed along with YOUR name
on the DVD program and you will be credited on the TV program.

The John E. Profant Foundation For The Arts is producing
the
Talent Search to reach a broad range of students
in the Film, Theater, Art and Music Departments
Our mission as a non-profit 501c3 organization is to assist artists of all
ages through scholarships, exhibits and performances. We truly appreciate
your support as a sponsor, performer or volunteer!
The award will be named in memory of Bob Profant.
"We are delighted that the John E. Profant Foundation for
the Arts
has made our students the beneficiaries of its upcoming Talent Search
fundraiser. John's brother, Robert Profant, was a faculty member at
SBCC for nearly four decades and a major contributor in molding the
college into the highly regarded institution and community that it is
today. The collaboration between the Profant Foundation and SBCC carries
on the legacy of these two inspirational men who cared deeply about
students and the arts. The scholarships provided by the Talent Search
proceeds will make a big difference to students who might not otherwise
be able to pursue their dreams of studying in the fields of music, film,
theatre, and the visual arts."
John Romo, President, Santa Barbara City College
”The following will help you better understand what we are looking for
and expect from you as well as letting you know about areas you should avoid
for obvious reasons.
Let's all have a great time and your participation and talent will make this
an event no one will forget!”
Joyce Shaar, Event Chair
