Become a Miracle Moment sponsor

Sponsored Miracle Moment hours during the marathon raise awareness about the many programs and services Children's Hospital of Wisconsin provides that positively impact thousands of children in our community. They also serve as a vehicle to aggressively highlight sponsoring businesses that proactively support Children's Hospital.

By sponsoring a Miracle Moment, your company will receive significant visibility in our community by aligning yourself with the mission of Children's Hospital. Your $10,000 investment includes approximately 12 on-air mentions during a specific peak drive time hour, significant recognition on our websites, social media sites and inclusion in two large-scale e-marketing efforts pushed out to nearly 25,000 donors to the hospital. In addition, your company receives recognition in the 2013 Children's Hospital of Wisconsin Foundation Donor Report. Your employees also are extended the opportunity to connect with us by volunteering in our phone bank during the two-day radiothon.

Your company's sponsorship of a Miracle Moment offers significant value to your organization by aligning with one of the nation's best Children's Hospitals — right here in our community.

Become a Power Hour sponsor

The use of power hours has positively impacted the amount of calls and donations we receive on the phone bank. History and statistics have shown that during power hours in 2012, phone bank calls increased an average of 40 percent for that particular hour. This clearly demonstrates the "power" of your gift, which ultimately means more dollars for the kids.

By partnering with the Dave & Carole Miracle Marathon, your company will receive several marketing benefits as a Power Hour Sponsor. Your $5,000 investment would reflect a match donation to the listeners who call the phone bank during a specified one-hour time period during the event. We promote the hour by saying, "It's a "XXX" power hour. Call now and "XXX" will match your donations!"

Incentive/Summerfest ticket sponsor

You can help make miracles happen with a donation of Summerfest tickets or gift card incentives. Incentives are used to increase our number of online donations and a way to get the phones to ring during specific hours of the radiothon. Summerfest tickets and general incentive gift cards have been extremely successful for this event. Just by offering Summerfest tickets to donors who pledged a minimum of $20 or more a month, our phone bank call volume increases 20 percent on average. In total, we raised more than $300,000 just from the Summerfest ticket incentive! Obviously, the less money we have to spend on purchasing tickets, the more money will directly benefit the kids at Children's Hospital of Wisconsin.

Hospitality sponsor

Our phone bank volunteers are gearing up for the marathon as generous donations from individuals and businesses in our community come in. This dedicated group will spend many hours answering phones when donors call to pledge their support.

We would like to invite your company to contribute to the overall success of this event by donating lunch and/or dinner for our phone bank volunteers on one of the days during the Miracle Marathon.
