Sponsorship and Prizes

  • Walkers are encouraged, but not required, to have sponsors.  To streamline the sponsorship and sponsor outreach process, we are using 99Pledges.  To facilitate tracking of the sponsorships, we are requesting that the donated amount is made in a single flat sum, rather than on a per lap basis.  A sponsorship page will be created for all registered students to help track their sponsorships.  Please allow approximately 48 hours after completing the online registration for the sponsorship page to be created for your student.  You and your student will then be able to reach out to friends and family electronically by email, Facebook, and Twitter. Sponsors can make a credit card contribution to support your student with a simple and secure online transaction.  Search engines do not index sponsorship pages. They are only seen by parents who share the links. Your security is taken extremely seriously and none of your email will be shared and your credit card information will not be retained.  Finally, we are setting a goal to challenge each student to raise $50 to support our fundraising efforts.
  • A sponsorship page is created for each registered student approximately 48 hours after completing the online registration.  Please visit this page (48 hours after registration): https://99pledges.com/fund/LincolnFallFestival2017 and search for your child first name, last initial, and room number.  Their total pledges will be tracked on their 99Pledge page.
  • Sponsorships are accepted through event day and closes at 10pm on Friday, October 27, 2017.  All contest winners and awards will be distributed and announced in early November 2017.
