The Karen Swartz Walk was started in
2011 and has drawn between 125 and 175 attendees each year since
2013. After successfully expanding the event to include a 5K run in
addition to our family walk in 2016, we’ve decided to continue with this format
for future events. In order to make each event the best possible
experience for our attendees, we’re hoping your organization will provide us
with support as official sponsors.

The Friends of Wood County
CASA (5013c) are seeking sponsors for our annual Karen Swartz Memorial 5K for
2020. The event will be held on Saturday, October 3, 2020 in Rossford, Ohio. The
event begins at the Rossford Community Center. We use this walk to raise
awareness and recruit new volunteers for the Wood County Court Appointed
Special Advocate (CASA) Program.
As our sponsor, your logo
will be featured on the back of our official event T-Shirts. If you choose
to become a sponsor at the signature tier, your logo will be printed at the top
of the list with a larger logo image along with the logos of our other
signature sponsors. These logos will be followed by the logos of the
sponsors in our other two tiers:
We are also seeking donations of water and snacks such as bagels
or fruit for our participants. Organizations contributing water or snacks
will also be featured on our T-shirts.
In 2017, with the
assistance of 41 volunteers, the Wood County CASA program served as the
voices of 171 neglected and abused children in the Wood County Juvenile
Court. Many of these children's lives have been impacted by the heroin
epidemic. The Friends of CASA program hopes to use this event to recruit
additional volunteers in order to ensure that these victims of abuse and
neglect are given a safe, permanent home. For additional information on
the Wood County CASA program or the Friends of
CASA organization, please check out our website at www.woodcountycasa.org.
Information and
registration is now available for this year’s Karen Swartz Memorial

Sincerely,
Friends of Wood County CASA
