Sponsorship Packages

2023 SPONSORSHIPS ARE OPEN!

You’re welcome to view our Sponsorship Mail Form and Sponsorship Brochure.

To guarantee your business logo is printed on our t-shirts, you must submit by September 25.

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 5th at Baylands Park, in Sunnyvale. Runners, walkers, stroller-pushers, and little ones are invited. The event registrants who register before September 28 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].
