Corporate Sponsorship - businesses & individuals

Great Lakes Bay Animal Society is hosting our 12th Fast and Furriest 5K Run/Walk on Saturday, May 3, 2025 at Midland City Forest. We are expecting over 300 participants, many of whom will attend with their dogs. Runners and walkers come from throughout Michigan to participate. 

Your support as a Sponsor or Donor of this event helps defray the cost so that all race entry fees go directly toward our mission of saving more companion animals in our communities and continuing our community programs. 

• The Fast & Furriest 5K is our primary fundraising event for the year.
• From intake to adoption our rescues’ needs are responded to with compassionate foster care, skilled veterinary care, vaccines and are spayed or neutered.
• Most animals surrendered to us are from shelters that cannot meet their medical needs. Since 2012, GLBAS has cared for over 1200+ animals that have received more than $248,000 in veterinary costs.

As a race sponsor, your business will receive publicity throughout the region on marketing materials which includes posters, flyers, social media promotions and announcements. On race day, and depending on the sponsorship level you choose, your business logo may be displayed on banners or signs and our popular race day t-shirts that every race participant receives. Your business logo/name (along with a link to your website) will also be displayed on our website as a Corporate Sponsor.

To ensure your company's name is included on the promotional materials, please consider submitting a sponsorship amount by March 31, 2025. We will gladly tailor a sponsorship package to suit your budget. Any suggestions are welcome by contacting us at glbas.org@gmail.com.
