Sponsors

For the ride to be successful, the ride needs sponsorship. We are working aggressively to bring quality sponsors to the ride. Our goal for sponsorship is to defry costs associated with the ride (permits, clean-up, food, etc). Both monetary and in-kind contributions are welcomed and needed.

Major Sponsors

These companies have given significantly to help support the ride and the goal of speading the word about the District's AIDS crisis. Please support them by purchasing their products or services:

	ClifBar is the energy bar of the One, Day, One Ride, One Cause cycling event. Clif has sponsored us on previous rides and have a history of supporting important events such as ours. They have really stepped it up this year by becoming the "official nutrition bar provider". So look forward to getting lots of Clif Shots, Bloks and Bars to give you the eenergy you need to get you through the Ride!
	Southwest Airlines has stepped up in a MAJOR way and have supplied the Ride with two tickets to anywhere Southwest flies. We will hold a raffle to help cover some of the costs of the ride and will donate a percentage of the total funds raised to the beneficiary who sells the most tickets! If you are interested in purchasing a raffle ticket contact us or a beneficiary!

	Road ID's mission is to get runners, cyclists, triathletes and walkers to realize the importance of wearing ID and to make ID part of their gear. In the event of an accident, proper ID is our lifeline. We encourage riders to purchasing this potentially lifesaving equipment! To help the Ride, Road ID will donate a percentage of every purchase made from the One Day website! Just click the logo and buy something!!!
	Thanks to Saturn for being the a supporter of the ride's goals. Saturn is graciously offering a monatary donation and by bringing a few vehicles from Saturn's latest line of cars to showcase at the event. Also, as part of their summer promotions, Saturn will be giving away a car at the end of September and those who attend the event will have a chance to enter and win. Saturn will also provide giveaways on the day of the event!
	Thanks to Zipcar for allowing Zipcar members to participate in the ride as Sweep support! Zipcar is the world's largest car sharing and car club provider and is the closest thing to owning a car without the cost and headaches. It's also more convenient, cost-effective and more fun than renting. Go to their website and see why being a "Zipster" may be a great alternative to car ownership.
	Thanks to the Downtown DC Business Improvement District for providing much needed "goodie bags" for the event! These bags will aid the ride's mission to transmit information about HIV/AIDS to attendees and distribute sponsorship materials. They also provided bike maps of the District! The Downtown Business Improvement District (BID) is a nonprofit that works to revitalize the city's urban core. The District covers a 140-block neighborhood near the U.S. Capitol to the White House where property owners tax themselves to make their community cleaner, safer and more vibrant.
