Thanks to our 2024 event sponsors!
Sponsorship opportunities available!
Are you a local company in Massachusetts that wants to sponsor a great cause? Whether you're a large corporation or a solopreneur, there are sponsorship and donation opportunities available for you at our 2024 Bolton Community Fund 5K.
The Bolton Community Fund has a real impact, right here in your neighborhood, thanks to donors like you. We've donated Thanksgiving baskets and holiday gift cards to local families, sponsored quarterly dinners at WHEAT Community Connections, covered the medical expenses for a longtime resident battling cancer, and provided necessary athletic gear to high school students in need, to name a few.
By supporting the Bolton 5K as a sponsor, you'll help us to continue these initiatives in town. The 5K festival is our largest fundraiser of the year, raising over $20,000 in 2023. We hope to make this year our best year yet! As the event and sponsor list grows, the impact grows.
