The Friends of Wood County CASA (5013c) are
seeking sponsors for our annual Karen Swartz Memorial 5K for 2018. The event
will be held on Saturday October 6, 2018 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. 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.
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:
|
|
Signature Tier:
|
$100
|
|
|
Middle Tier:
|
$50
|
|
|
Donator:

$25

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.
