Sponsor TickReport testing in your community

Tick testing provides accurate, sensitive, and specific detection of more than twenty disease-causing organisms ticks can transmit to people and pets. It targets the DNA or RNA of the pathogen itself (rather than waiting multiple weeks for antibodies to build up), and gives valuable and actionable information to people bitten by ticks as they make decisions about their health.

Reading the DNA and RNA of a tick requires specialized materials, costly machinery, and professional scientists. We work hard to keep tick testing as close to the actual cost of the service as possible, but testing fees can still be a burden to people who work and play outdoors. We invite you to join us in investing in the health of our communities by sponsoring tick tests in your town or beyond. Start the process here, or email us to design a custom sponsorship.

FAQs

How are discounts applied?

Sponsored discounts are applied automatically based on a client’s city/town and state.

What regions can I sponsor?

We can match discounts to any combination of city or state names. You can choose to sponsor just Amherst, Massachusetts, a group of 12 neighboring towns, or the entire Atlantic coast.

What’s in it for me?

Public health benefits everyone! But, when discounts are applied you are acknowledged as a sponsor during the order process and in follow-up emails.

Are multiple sponsors allowed per town?

Yes! All sponsors are acknowledged, and multiple sponsorships help ensure that discounted pricing will always be available. The discount for the client remains the same, rather than stacking, but the total number of discounts available will increase. When there is overlap, sponsors are listed by order of sponsor level, then alphabetically.

Can I increase the discount amount?

We’re always happy to discuss custom discount plans. We have arranged discounts of as much as $85 per order in order to emphasize testing for viruses such as Powassan virus. Email us at info@TickReport.com or call us at 413-230-3196 to discuss the best fit for your goals and your community.

I’m not located in or near Massachusetts, can I still sponsor my town?

Yes! We can create automated discounts for any area with U.S. postal codes. Concerned about ticks in Cheyenne, Wyoming? No problem. Want to improve surveillance in the Carolinas? We can cover that too!

What payment forms are accepted?

Mail a check, pay online through a trusted processor, or let us know if you prefer another means. All sponsorships require payment in advance, but those funds never expire; they will support your community’s health until all tests are used up.
