January 2023

Dear .1K Supporting Sponsor,

VFW Post 805 is excited to announce the Tenth Annual 0.1K Fun Run to benefit military and veteran families will be held on April 1, 2023. For the past decade, with your help, Post 805 has been able to help local veterans and veterans’ families in need as well as national veteran organizations! Since this is the tenth year and we are holding it on April 1, this year it will be known as the 0.101K!
Our Post continues to answer the call and has been recognized as an All-State and All-American VFW Post consistently for many years. These designations denote outstanding VFW program execution and our overall contributions to Veterans and our local community. Indeed, the Outstanding Community Post designation is bestowed upon only 61 VFW Posts out of 6000 worldwide each year. With your help, we can continue our tradition of providing the highest standards of support to Veterans and our local community.
Sponsorship and support from many community organizations is what makes this event a success and reflects the tremendously generous and helpful spirit of our community. In return for your sponsorship, we will include advertising for your business with your name or logo (if provided) on the race T-shirt. We will also include any promotional material you may provide in the participant race packets. Your business will be linked through our website and Facebook page and will be recognized at the event.
There are many ways you can help listed in the attached material. If you are not able to provide the DIAMOND, PLATINUM, or GOLD level, or one of the other levels of sponsorship, please contact me and we to discuss another method of supporting our event. We will have a silent auction where donations from local businesses will raise additional funds during the event so donations of gift certificates or items are also welcome.
More details and information about the .1K Race can be found at the run’s website at www.vfwpost805.org or the run’s Facebook page at www.facebook.com/vfw805point1k.
Please direct any questions regarding this donation or this letter to the undersigned by phone at (618) 514-9265, please leave a message and I will return your call as soon as possible, or email to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
We THANK YOU for your support of our veterans!

Most appreciatively,

Tina Welmon
