We haven’t started the personal fundraising efforts yet (it’s way too soon), but this month we did send out letters to businesses and one to a church asking them to sponsor the team. We received a lot of good responses and by month’s end had raised $31,875! We’re off to a great start!
Out of all those who gave, particular mention should be made of the following that were very generous and will be sponsors of the team (and thus appear on our jerseys):
Title Sponsor
Denali Flavors (Moose Tracks ice cream)
Major Sponsor
Associate Sponsors
Hoffman, Steensma, and Plamondon, P.L.C.
I want to thank these organizations and all the others who have given generously to get us off to a great start.
Next month, we’ll take some time off of fundraising (while we work on our materials), and then hit it hard in May as the weather gets nicer and the ride approaches. As of now, we have 16 riders committed to riding in the race and raising funds, so we should see some great fundraising ahead.
