Race for the Cure » Race Sponsors

As a Komen Grand Rapids Race for the Cure® corporate sponsor, your company or organization can make a difference in the lives of mothers, daughters, sisters, grandmothers and friends here in West Michigan and across the nation. You can show your organization's support of breast cancer research, education, screening and treatment - a heartfelt issue among the thousands of participants expected at this year's Race. In order to put on a Race and fund local programs, we rely on cash sponsorships, in-kind donations, underwriting support and additional fundraising events. 75% of all net proceeds stay right here in our West Michigan communities helping the people that you work and live with every day.

Thanks to our 2007 Race Sponsors:

Many companies successfully market their support of causes important to their customers and employees, and our event offers that opportunity to our generous partners.

In - Kind Sponsorships

The Komen Grand Rapids Race for theCure® greatly appreciates In-kind donations of goods and services needed for the event. Sponsors making these contributions must place a fair market value on the good or service. This will be used to determine the appropriate sponsorship category.

VIEW OUR LIST OF IN-KIND CONTRIBUTIONS NEEDED FOR 2008.

If a company is donating products strictly for distribution to Race participants, we ask that any donation at the $2500 level include a $1,000 cash contribution to receive the benefits of Silver Sponsorship.

An early commitment and signed Sponsorship Agreement by May 30th will ensure exposure to all pre-Race events and inclusion in all printed advertising and appropriate collateral materials.
