Non-Profit Partner
Vending Program(NPPV)

This application is for the Colorado Dragon Boat Festival Non-Profit Partner Vending Program. Our program provides an opportunity for community non-profit groups to staff a festival concession stand and market their organization. NPPVs earn a flat fee + percentage of the proceeds.

Please have your EIN (Non-Profit Tax ID number) available for this application.

The Colorado Dragon Boat Festival’s Non-Profit Partners Vending Program invites non-profit organizations representing a variety of missions and causes to earn money and market for their organization by supplying volunteers to work a concession booth selling festival items. Partners apply and, depending on openings, are assigned by the CDBF NPPV Coordinator to one of the following areas of festival sales operations: Beer, Beverage, Merchandise or Bike Corrals.

In order to apply, it is recommended that your organization has at least 10 individuals + a booth manager able to run the booth throughout the days of the festival. There should be multiple shifts of at least 5 (including booth manager) onsite at all times. All nonprofit partners will be trained and managed by our Beverage Management team that will be onsite. In 2024 we gave back over $12,000 to our Non-profit Partners!
