Knaresborough Chamber of Trade has received £3,000 sponsorship from engineering company Mitsubishi Heavy Industries.
MHI initially sponsored Party in the Castle, the chamber-organised family fun day in 2019.
Since then a director of the company, John Billson, has kept in touch with chamber president Steve Teggin to discuss further support.
Mr Billson, who works in the air conditioning side of the international business, met Mr Teggin, a hairdresser, when he was having his hair cut.

The £3,000 award will support the chamber's work over the next 12 months.
Mr Teggin said:
