Partner with Us

​In an increasingly digital world, the simple act of gathering around a table has become a radical, essential pursuit. For those of us living in the beautiful Marina Alta region, Tablero serves as more than just a tabletop gaming association; it is a catalyst for connection. We are a not-for-profit collective dedicated to fostering social cohesion, cognitive development, and genuine human interaction through the medium of board games, card games, and tabletop role-playing.

​As we continue to grow, we are inviting local organizations – from businesses and cultural hubs to educational institutions – to join our network of partners. By standing with us, you are not just supporting a hobby; you are investing in the social fabric of our local community.

​Why Partner with Tablero?

​Modern consumers and citizens are increasingly drawn to organizations that demonstrate a tangible commitment to their community. Partnering with Tablero offers a unique opportunity to align your organization with a mission that promotes inclusivity, mental well-being, and local engagement.

​1. Strengthening Our Social Fabric

​The benefits of tabletop gaming are well-documented: they reduce stress, combat loneliness, and improve cognitive function. By hosting our groups or sponsoring our events, you are effectively providing a “third space” – a safe, welcoming environment outside of work and home where people can decompress, socialize, and learn. Your partnership helps us remove barriers to access, ensuring that everyone in our region, regardless of their background, has a place to play and connect.

​2. Enhancing Your Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)

​In the Marina Alta, community identity is strong. Partnering with a non-profit like Tablero allows your organization to demonstrate its support for social causes. Supporting recreational and educational initiatives shows that you care about the quality of life in our region. It is a powerful narrative to share: you are playing an active role in keeping our local community spirit alive.

​3. Fostering Meaningful Connections

​Our events draw participants from all walks of life – families, students, retirees, and professionals. By partnering with us, you position your organization as a supporter of a vibrant, positive community initiative. We view our partners as an extension of our team and are committed to highlighting your contributions to our members, building a legacy of mutual support.

​Building a Sustainable Partnership

​To ensure clarity and tax transparency, we categorize our collaborations into two clear paths based on Spanish regulations (Law 49/2002).

​1. Philanthropic Support (Donations)

​For organizations looking to support our mission without a commercial exchange, we accept direct donations. These contributions are purely altruistic and are directed entirely toward our non-profit activities, such as purchasing gaming materials or subsidizing fees. We provide formal certification for these contributions, which may allow you to claim tax benefits under Spanish law as a donor to a qualifying non-profit entity.

​2. Collaborative Sponsorships

​For businesses, we offer formal sponsorship agreements. In exchange for your financial or in-kind support, we provide neutral, factual recognition of your role in the community. This may include:

• ​Visibility: Display of your logo on event signage or within our digital community spaces as a “Supporter of Tablero.”
• ​Neutral Acknowledgement: Mentions in our community updates, such as “This tournament was made possible by the support of [Brand Name].”
• ​Community Integration: Hosting Tablero events at your premises, which provides a neutral, welcoming atmosphere for residents and families to gather.

​Note: To maintain the integrity of our non-profit status, we do not engage in promotional advertising, comparative endorsements, or direct sales calls. Our partnerships are built on shared values and community growth.

​What We Expect in Return

​To keep Tablero sustainable, our partnerships are built on a foundation of mutual aid:

• ​Venue Hosting: Providing accessible, safe space for our community meet-ups.
• ​Resource Sharing: In-kind support that helps us reduce operational costs (e.g., refreshments for community nights or logistics for event setup).
• ​Commitment to Mission: A shared belief in the value of face-to-face social interaction and cognitive development in the Marina Alta.
• ​Formalization: We utilize clear agreements to ensure full compliance with regional regulations, clearly defining the nature of the partnership (donation vs. sponsorship).
