Hello,

Girls on the Run of Kent and Muskegon counties is excited to share with you a "remarkable" opportunity to invest in young girls across Kent and Muskegon counties.

On December 6, 2019, we are holding our 5th annual REMARKABLE! Luncheon at the Prince Conference Center at Calvin College. We are pleased to welcome special guest, Girls on the Run International CEO, Elizabeth Kunz.

We are very proud that as we prepare for our 16th year we have never had to turn away a girl for financial reasons. Last year, with the help of our generous sponsors and individual donors, we were able to provide support for almost 1,100 girls! As we estimate an enrollment of over 2,400 girls for Spring 2019, we anticipate that the need for program registration financial assistance for our most at-risk girls will be even greater.

Please consider joining our efforts to positively impact the lives of thousands of girls in West Michigan by being a sponsor of our REMARKABLE! Luncheon. Sponsorships rage from $500 (LIMITLESS POTENTIAL level) to $2,5000 (GIRL POWER level), and include benefits from seating at the event to social media recognition to Celebration 5k privileges and more. Additionally, we are offering a discounted CORPORATE TABLE rate for large groups to join us for this event - 8 seats for only $200! Complete information about sponsorship options and a commitment form are included in this packet. A limited quantity of individual tickets will also be available for $28 each at www.gotrkmc.org.

We look forward to your decision to make a difference for thousands of local girls, and the continued influence that decision will have in our community. Please don't hesitate to contact us with any questions you may have about this event and other sponsorship opportunities. We hope that empowering our community's girls is at the top of your list and we can count on you to support our proven transformational program that is changing the world... one girl at a time!

Sincerely,

Lori Burgess, Executive Director Girls on the Run of Kent and Muskegon
