Sponsorship of rides

[VroomSL]

Hi -

 

Does anyone know how much it would cost to sponsor a funride. Or even some race like the DC of Burger.

 

Thanks

Our budget for Journey 4 Sight n Service is about R50 000.*

 

This includes payments to PPA, traffic police, medical support, groups that assist us, and the costs of comms, venue hire, medals, and plenty of other odds and ends. It all adds up.

 

You could get away with a much smaller budget, but you'll probably regret it.

 

Without generous support from Pres Les, Olympic Cycles and Foord Asset Management we wouldn't have anything much to show after the event. Sorry about the commercial, but it helps keep rides on the road.

 

In case you're wondering where the money goes: the 2010 JFS proceeds paid for a R42 000 cranial monitoring computer for brain injuries for infants and children at Red Cross War Memorial Children’s Hospital.

 

* For next year (JFS takes place on January 9), pressure from the events office forced us to cut back to just the long ride - an estimated R12 000 loss.
