LDSS Buddy Walk 2019
Registration
Online registration will close on Thursday, October 3, but registration will be available the day of the walk beginning at 8:30 am.
Sponsorship
If you know of an individual or business that would like to sponsor the Buddy Walk either with a monetary donation or an in kind donation, please follow up with them as soon as possible. A quick reference guide to Sponsorship levels is attached.
Please note that if a sponsor wants to be included on the t-shirt, the deadline is September 4th. A sponsor’s name will appear on the shirt if they give $500 – $999. A sponsor’s logo will appear on the shirt if they give $1000 or more. (As for logos, files that are vector art, 300 dpi work best. They will also accept jpgs and pdfs.)
Also, if you are approaching a business or individual about sponsorship, please let us know at buddywalk@ldssga.org so we don’t duplicate our efforts. If you need assistance with approaching a business or individual, please let us know.
Information Booths
If you know of a business or organization that provides good or services for people with different abilities who might like to have a booth at the Buddy Walk, please send their name and contact information to Laura Ambrose at lambrose@ldssga.org.
Booth information is also available online under LDSS Buddy Walk Tab under the Sponsorship Tab, see Vendor Information.
