When we needed some sponsorship for various activities (in the Scouts) we
approached medium sized and smaller local companies rather than large
conglomarates. Normally the promise of advertising can work wonders, we
managed to get a local engineering company to provide all the materials and
tools as well as the engineering know how to help us build a new Scout car.
A local printer said they would produce our news letter for nothing, etc etc.
I would reccomend this, you could say offer to put the company logo on all
the luggage and so on.
I don't know if this is practical, I live in the UK, but it may be worth a
try.
Good luck, and I hope he gets here.
