Our Sponsorship Philosophy

Our commitment to you, the sponsor, is to host a professional, high-quality event which cultivates community spirit as well as generates interest, awareness and increased exposure for your products and services. This will be our 5th annual event and past participants number between 300-400. We anticipate these numbers again this year and feel we are meeting a community need as families and individuals come together to participate in a fun, healthy, activity-filled morning. Your sponsorship sends a powerful message of support for healthy living and for the youth and families of our community. Nationally our 5k event is one in a series of nationwide Girls on the Run 5k events that have now achieved being the 2nd largest race series in the country.

Where Does Your Money Go?

All sponsorship monies stay locally to support our Girls on the Run of the Wood River Valley council. More specifically, the monies benefit our program in the following ways:

- Scholarships - Girls on the Run is offered to all girls regardless of their ability to pay. Your sponsorship helps us offer the funds necessary to insure all girls are able to participate.

- Curriculum - Girls on the Run uses organized, well-researched curriculum that is nationally proven. Your sponsorship helps to supply and maintain the materials necessary to implement each of the 12 lessons in this curriculum.

- Overhead - Although Girls on the Run is primarily volunteer-based, we have necessary overhead costs to keep our program running. These costs include t-shirts for each participant, liability insurance, licensing fees, individual site expenses, supplies and administration. Your sponsorship helps to ensure these expenses can be met to keep our program running efficiently.
