Dear Potential Sponsor:
On April 18, 2015, Athens Canine Rescue will host its 8th annual Pedal for Paws charity
bike ride. The ride offers two distance options and features food and drinks to follow the
ride. Last year, we had over 100 riders participating in both our 41 and 61 mile rides.
We expect the event to continue to grow each year and all proceeds will be used to
support our mission of rescuing abandoned dogs in the Athens area.
We are actively seeking partner organizations to serve as event sponsors. We invite
you to take advantage of this exceptional advertising and promotional opportunity as a
sponsorship participant. We are confident that the event will attract a good number of
participants for both races, making this a meaningful investment for sponsorship
participants. Athens Canine Rescue is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization and is proud
to have been a part of the Athens community since 1989. We have helped thousands
of dogs through our programs of adoption and outreach and our hope is to continue this
for many years to come. We need your help to sustain this mission in our community.
Without businesses like yours, our organization would not exist.
Athens Canine Rescue is a non-profit organization, so any donation you make is tax
deductible. We have provided details of all sponsorship benefits in the packet and hope
you support us for this worthwhile community event. We are committed to actively
promoting every sponsor who will help us make this event a success.
Please submit the enclosed letter of agreement by March 7, 2015 to be included in
race-day promotional material.
If you have any questions or would like additional information, please contact Bly Crane,
at (706) 206-8436 or [email protected]. We look forward to working
with you on the 2015 Pedal for Paws. Thank you for the gift of support and sponsorship.
Sincerely,
Athens Canine Rescue Board of Directors:
Bly Crane-President, Andrea Collier-Adoption Coordinator, Leslie Trier-Event Coordinator, Kellie Walker-PR
