Our Sponsors for 2015

On February 19th, 2015, Borderlands started a sponsorship program to allow our continued financial viability.  We asked that a minimum of 300 people purchase sponsorships for $100 each by the end of March.  If we reached that goal, we would stay open for one year and, each following year, we would again ask for at least 300 sponsors.  Below you will find the list of the sponsors thus far in the order that they signed up.

The following are the First 300, who were responsible for Borderlands staying open.  In less than 48 hours they changed the course of the business.

But the sponsorships did not stop at 300.  The numbers continued (and continue) to grow, proving that people truly believe in independent bookstores and the value that they bring to our lives.  We salute all our sponsors and are inspired to continue improving our business, supporting our community and, last but not least, selling lots and lots of books.
