Walk to Talk/Run for Fun Sponsorship Opportunities

As a sponsor of this premier event you will be prominently featured in event literature and on the CSLD website with the option of linking our website to yours. Event promotional materials will be targeted throughout Chicago and DuPage County to advertise the event. Marketing materials and press releases highlighting the event and its sponsors will be targeted to more than 300,000 people in DuPage County and surrounding Chicago area neighborhoods.  

A Unique Opportunity

We plan on reaching participants, their families, volunteers and Chicago-area businesses devoted to our mission to help children with communication disorders reach their full potential through family-centered services. We estimate that more than 200 people, including walkers, family members and volunteers, will participate in this event.  

You and/or your company will be featured on customized event promotional materials and on the CSLD website. In order to limit our costs and maximize funds raised for CSLD, all event participants and volunteers will register and gather event information from the CSLD website, www.csld.org. This promotional strategy will greatly increase the number of visitors to our website and likewise your company’s visibility while significantly limiting the need for costly multiple mailings and print materials.
