Become a Sponsor
Thank you!
We’re thrilled you are considering a partnership with us to both help grow your business and make the Michigan Monster Dash a reality. For a more complete picture of our goals, our mission, and our history, download our Sponsorship Proposal PDF.
Please reach out to us to start a conversation about becoming a partner sponsor.
One of our primary objectives at Michigan Monster Dash is to help dreams come true for critically ill children. We partner with the Michigan chapter of Make-A-Wish, and each participant is encouraged to donate when they register.
While your sponsorship will offset administrative costs (park fees, equipment rental, etc) helping Make-A-Wish kids through the Monster Dash is only possible because of our sponsors.
