Honor a hero. Open a state.
Your sponsorship honors a local hero and opens a verified civic platform to an entire state, free for the people who live there. Your brand is the reason it happened.
What one state activation looks like.
One sponsorship. A whole state honors a hero, and you are the reason.
Sponsors fund what no advertising budget can buy: a verified civic platform, free for the people who live there, activated by honoring one of their own. Here is what you get for it.
The first activation.
Verified civic publishing.
When anyone can publish anything, verified is the trust signal a community looks for.
Verified only
Identity-verified organizations only. No anonymous accounts, no bots, no spam.
Someone is accountable
No AI features, no bots, and the platform generates nothing. Every post is owned by a verified organization that stands behind it.
Local to global
All 50 U.S. states, 160+ countries and territories, more than 278,000 verified members.
One honor opens a whole state.
HeroByApp™ honors one hero in each of the fifty states. Each honor opens the platform, at no cost, to every town, nonprofit, and business in that state. Indiana was first:
State of Indiana and Governor's profile, 50+ agencies connected
Indianapolis activated, 20 city agencies connected
Built for nearly 7 million Hoosiers and 719,000+ businesses
5 million+ requests across CityByApp™ properties in 30 days
The next state could be yours.
More than a logo. A place in it.
Every sponsor, at every level, becomes part of the infrastructure they fund.
Everything a business can publish, in one verified place.
Your CityByApp™ membership is not a static directory entry. It is a living profile every verified organization controls and publishes to, with your brand credited as the reason the platform is open in your state.
This is what your listing looks like.
Blue Sky Financial Partners is our State of Indiana sponsor. Here is their real, verified CityByApp™ profile, and what nine months on the platform produced.
A blue verified check, a real Valparaiso address on the map, direct phone and message buttons, nine listed specialties, articles, and built-in share to Facebook, LinkedIn and X. Identity-verified, so the community can trust who is behind it.
Blue Sky Financial Partners, first nine months (Jan to Sep 2026). As a sponsor, your organization is also credited on the state activation page, in the statewide announcement, and across onboarding, so every business that claims a listing sees who made it possible.
How far your name travels.
