The Moon and Back Sponsorship

There are approximately nine airline tickets needed for the crew and team.  Benefits include:


Rooting for you Sponsorship

The RAAM entry fee for a four-person team is due December 15, 2007 and is $4,795.00. After that date it is $5,695.00. The rooting for you sponsorships helps us reserve our spot at the lower fee. Expenses will be incurred starting in January to reserve hotel rooms (pre and post race), airlines, etc. This is one example of how impactful contributions from companies or individuals can be who want to be a part of this team with a smaller sponsorship or contribution.

At the point we receive sponsorship opportunities that cover the expenses of the race (approximately $30,000.00) 100% of the funds will be distributed amongst the two charities listed below. Riders do not take any salary. Additionally, the accounting records are available to any sponsor/contributor upon request.

Cost is a minimum contribution of $1,000.00. There are 30 sponsorships available.

Charities to Benefit:

Pick Your Charity

As the Title Sponsor you can select the non-profit organization you would like to receive the contributions in excess of actual costs. During RAAM a message is communicated continuously on the name of the team and which non-profit they are riding for which is a powerful connection for a company. 

Have an Idea Sponsorship

Perhaps we did not have exactly what you want or you would like to see in a sponsorship. If we could add a component to an existing sponsorship to meet your needs we will. Please contact Lark with your thoughts, and we will accommodate your goals if at all possible.
