2024 SPONSORSHIPS ARE OPEN!
You’re welcome to view our Event Flyer, Sponsorship Mail Form, and Sponsorship Brochure.
Sponsorship will be closed on Friday, October 18, 2024. The deadline to print your logo on our race T-shirts is September 30, 2024 but any level still includes a promotional area, packet promo inserts, free tickets and discounted registration.
Down by the Bay 5k & Tot Trot needs your sponsorship. We are a family-friendly 5k fun run benefiting a local non-profit preschool (MVPNS.org). As prices in the Bay Area boom in these difficult times, this fundraising event is even more crucial to the survival of our small non-profit school. Please help us continue to provide excellent early childhood education while keeping tuition affordable for families from all economic backgrounds.
This year’s race will take place on November 3rd at Baylands Park, in Sunnyvale. Runners, walkers, stroller-pushers, and little ones are invited. The event registrants who register before September 30 will receive a t-shirt that includes the sponsors’ logo. All registrants will receive promotional merchandise or materials from our sponsors prior to the start of the race.
Take advantage of this promotional opportunity, while supporting preschool-aged children and parent education, by becoming our sponsor! Sponsorships can be purchased 1) online by submitting the form to the right of this page or by 2) mailing a check to MVPNS. If you have any questions or would like to discuss any alternative proposals (e.g., joint marketing & promotion), please email [email protected].
