the Business Sponsorship Packet

March 1st, 2016
To Whom It May Concern:
Greetings! We are gathering once again to fight one of the fastest growing crimes in the world; human
trafficking. We are looking for financial sponsorships or donations, so we can bring awareness of human sex
trafficking into our communities and region. On Saturday, August 20th, 2016, many will be gathering at the
Woodland Trails Park, in Elk River for the 4th Annual Running For Justice 5k Fun Run/Walk! We invite you to
view our website at www.runningforjustice5k.com Our Facebook page is: Running For Justice 5k.
Last year, Running For Justice hosted a November 21st Creating Safe Communities Conference with funds
raised at the 5k, sponsorships and donations given. Also, we were able to host a Community Café Conversation
on Feb 28th, 2016. We believe both events were very fruitful, bringing more awareness into our communities
and giving participants tools to further the cause, whether in a small-scale or substantial way. We are very
grateful to have been given these opportunities!
In November 2015 we had two amazing opportunities to bring sex trafficking awareness. We had the privilege
to train staff at the Americinn, in Princeton. We also showed the Chosen DVD, then talked to about 70
students and staff at Ivan Sand School in Elk River.
DTN Ministries (www.dtnministries.com) will be the recipients of at least 10% of the funds, again, this year. The
remaining funds will go towards supporting the fight against Human Sex Trafficking in our communities and
beyond. Our vision is to work toward bringing sex trafficking awareness materials into schools, train hotel staff,
financially come alongside non-profit organizations who are providing needs for vulnerable youth, and to bring
a Community Café Conversation into several more local venues.
Please, take a moment to view the Sponsorship Levels Form (donations accepted, too) and consider joining
with us to make a difference. If you would like to sponsor Running For Justice, we would appreciate your
financial commitment by July 29th. We have included a self-addressed stamped envelope for your convenience.
Please, use the stamp, even if you are not supporting us. There are some more important instructions on the
Commitment Form. We are a non-profit 501c (3) tax exempt organization.(EIN # 46-5683123)
Thank you for your kind consideration in partnering with us. Please, feel free to contact us with any questions.
