Our Title Sponsor:
WM. WRIGLEY JR. COMPANY
A part of everyday life in over 182 countries, this leading global confectioner and the world's largest manufacturer of chewing gum is headquartered in Chicago. For all its growth and success worldwide, the company's values have not changed in its 100-plus-years. Wrigley believes in treating everyone – consumers, employees, partners, distributors, retailers and the community at large – with trust, dignity and respect. By underwriting the Wrigley Start Early 5K/10K Run and 5K Plegde Walk the Wm. Wrigley Jr. Company ensures that 100 percent of all proceeds go directly to Voices for Illinois Children and Prevent Child Abuse America.

Benefits of Sponsorship
Corporate sponsors become affiliated not only with a well-managed running event, but also with two well-respected non-profit organizations committed to making the world a better place for our children.

The run's primary audience are adults between the ages of 26 and 49 who come to run and walk in Chicago's beautiful Lincoln Park with their families. They live throughout the Chicago metropolitan area with a high concentration from five of Chicago's most densely populated zip codes: 60610, 60611, 60613, 60614, 60657. Significant support also comes from the North Shore communities of Evanston, Highland Park, Skokie, Wilmette and Winnetka. Participants are upscale and educated with disposable incomes. The secondary audience is made up of adults between the ages of 20 and 25 (evenly split between men and women).

Sponsorship Levels range from $2,500 to $30,000 and carry a variety of benefits, depending on the level and sponsorship category.
