2023 Sponsorship Proposal
NWI Triathletes Club is a group of individuals brought together in pursuit of a collective passion. We train to go faster, be stronger and have fun. Our members participate at every level; locally, regionally, nationally, and even at the international level. We wish to extend our proposal for sponsorship to promote our club and your business.
We thank you in advance for reviewing our proposal and look forward to joining forces with you.
Our non-profit club listed under section 501 (c)(4) of the IRS was started in 2011. We have held close to 100 members annually located mainly in Lake and Porter Counties. NWI Triathletes supports local races each year. These include Carmel Sprint Triathlon, Leon’s World’s Fastest Triathlon, Grand Rapids Triathlon, Lake Max Sprint Triathlon, and the MiTi 70.3/140.6 Triathlon. Our tent and banners are utilized to advertise our sponsors in addition to giving support to our athletes. Sponsors are also advertised on our website and on our social media outlets. The support of our sponsors plays a significant role in making NWI Triathletes what it is today.
In the next year, we will be actively working towards updating our status as an organization to 501 (c)(3) so that we will be considered a "non-profit" in the state and federal levels and will be able to take advantage of programs and discounts not currently available to us as 501 (c)(4). If we are successful in our endeavor this means you, as our sponsor, could consider your donation a tax write-off. This will take some time (and money) in the coming months
TAKING ON A BIG RACE
Our biggest undertaking in the next year is the acquisition of the LONGEST RUNNING Triathlon in the State of Indiana - the La Porte Sprint Triathlon. In 2023, the race will be in its 43rd year. We intend to make this race an incredibly special event in the state for years to come and since actual triathletes are hosting the race, we have a greater understanding of the athlete’s experience.
Our hope is to not only increase the # of participants but make the race a destination for athletes all over the Midwest by building on its history and ingraining the race into the culture of the town. In the next few years, we'd also like to add additional distance options and potentially make it a USAT Regional Championship race.
You can learn more about the event on the registration site HERE.
