Help Janet achieve her dream by sponsoring her - Every bit helps ($1 and up)

The cost to compete in Race Across America (RAAM) is astronomical, but what price can you place on a dream? Janet will primarily be utilizing her own funds to cover the costs of her race. However, we are seeking sponsors (for as little as $1- every bit helps) to offset her costs of competing in RAAM. We will be posting all sponsors on the primary follow van in a variety of sizes depending on the sponsorship level. If you prefer to donate without having your name posted, let us know when you make your donation.

The major expenses include:
  • RAAM registration
  • Rental of 3 vehicles
  • Vehicle setup costs (electronics that allow crew to communicate with the rider and other crew members as well as sound system for the rider)
  • Gas to get the vehicles across country1 hotel room/night during race x 13 days
  • Hotel rooms as we make our crossing
  • 4 hotel rooms at the finish for 2 nights
  • Food for the 6 crew members for 15
  • Specialized diet for Janet
  • Bike parts
  • Crew shirts
Our crew will be doing all we can to minimize the expenses where ever possible.

Sponsorship Levels:

  • Bronze: Donate between $1 and $99 and we will post your name on the van along with other donors on a 16"X11" decal. The font size will be large enough to be read by folks who walk up to the van.

  • Silver: Donate between $100 and $499 and we will post your name or company name on a stand alone 6"X9" decal on both sides of all three vehicles as well as logo placement on our website and our crew shirts.

  • Gold: Donate between $500 and $2500 and we will post your name or company name on a stand alone 8"x12" decal on the both sides of the van as well as logo placement on our website, our crew shirts, and will handout a reasonable amount of swag from your company (must be appropriate and meet with RAAM regulations).

  • Platinum: Donate more than $2500 and we will post your name or company logo (10"x15") prominently on four sides of all three of our vehicles as well as logo placement on our website, our crew shirts, handout a reasonable amount of swag from your company (must be appropriate and meet with RAAM regulations), and provide you with photos from the race that you can use in advertisements.
