Become a Solution Provider!

MASBO takes great pride in partnering with vendors that align with our members' needs; and believe strongly in ensuring that vendors, members, and the Association all benefit from these partnerships. As such, we provide various opportunities to engage with the membership in ways that best suit your company's vision and mission. Solution Provider memberships run July 1 through June 30. Thank you for your consideration of MASBO as a valued conduit for your business to our membership!

"It has been such an enriching and positive experience becoming a Solution Provider for MASBO! This relationship has delivered superb opportunities for me to build connection, learning and relationships within the school business community. The MASBO partnership is the perfect blend of virtual, in-person and networking opportunities to support my current and future business.”

- Nathan Pierce, National Sales Executive, Lifetouch

Thank you to our Solution Providers for providing input on our partner memberships and sponsorships. Narrative descriptions are below the chart.

In the interest of transparency, please know that partnership/sponsorship does not reflect support of a product or business. We value our partners to run high quality programs, but we do not endorse or vet businesses. In addition, the official MASBO logo is for the exclusive use of the Association and may only be used with the written permission of the Executive Director.
