Dear Friends:
We are very happy to
present the sponsorship opportunities for the 13th annual East Greenwich Rotary/ALS 5K Race/Walk,
to be held on April 20, 2013. The Scott Carlson
Memorial Road Race is
very proud of the fact that all proceeds directly benefit local Rhode Islanders who
are struggling with ALS. Last year we proudly
donated $62,000 to the ALS chapter in Rhode Island!
Who would have thought 13
years ago we would be still growing and expanding our race!! We are offering many different race
sponsorship opportunities again this year.
We have a number of monetary levels of support, most of which
automatically entitle you to be recognized on our T-Shirt and possibly in all
print advertising for the race.
Also this year as a sponsor you have the opportunity to
display your merchandise or services at our race. You must provide the display and due to State
regulations no commerce can be transacted.
It is a wonderful opportunity for hundreds of racers, families and park
visitors to see you and your company.
All of the proceeds from the
race go to the Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) Association, Rhode Island Chapter. This local chapter
intimately supports the victims, families and caregivers of ALS through their
many avenues of medical, financial, family resource, and equipment donation
outreach.
Please review this
package of information. Pay close
attention to the newest article by the ALSRI executive director Nancy Feroldi
who gives meaning to our passion to fight ALS.
We also have a page detailing the Sponsorship Opportunities and what you
can expect to receive for your monetary donation. You will see that the visibility afforded to
you through race sponsorship will be known to a wide variety of people
throughout Rhode Island and New England.
Finally, there is a
Sponsorship Form that you can fill out and return as indicated. We ask that you inform us by March 10th (or sooner please!) regarding
your support this year.
Thank you in advance for your
support of this year’s race!
Dr. Judith A. Pratt - race
chairperson
