Last year the Gal to Gal Foundation - a nonprofit dedicated to helping stage IV breast cancer patients and their families - had great companies sponsoring their first-ever Virtual Walk (Yoplait, FTD.com, Fodors and others). Now it's your turn! Your company can be featured throughout the Walk, the press coverage and all publicity opportunities both on
http://www.galtogalwalk.org/ and on
http://www.designhergals.com/. This opportunity will give you exposure to thousands of visitors daily. Additionally, they are working on two new PR events - an opening party in New York, and a "Viral Video" with celebrities endorsing the Walk - and they are working on ways to incorporate their sponsors into these events as well.
Please take a moment to look through their
Partnership Tiers, which include several levels of sponsorship opportunities, as well as inclusion in celebrity gift bags. Last year during the Virtual Walk:
* They raised more than $200,000 - and used the funds to sponsor education programs and to
grant wishes for advanced stage breast cancer patients and their families through Making Memories.
* Over 10,000 walkers participated.
* Nearly 500,000 unique visits to the Web site in 30 days.
* Media and sponsorship reached over 5 million - including national exposure on CBS, ABC, and The Martha Stewart Show - among many other radio, web and print spots.
This year's 2nd Annual Walk in October will include:
* You can walk in "teams" with your friends and associates - even celebrities!
* Your Guy Pals will be able to create their guy walker.
* Several dozen celebrity endorsements.
* Enhanced "reach" - leading companies like FranklinCovey will promote the Walk to their customer base and distribution channels.
