What is the Human Race?
The Volunteer Center Human Race is the largest community fundraiser. It provides an opportunity for all nonprofit organizations to raise money for their programs and enables everyone to support the nonprofit of their choice. Participating nonprofits receive 75% - 90% of monies collected. The Volunteer Center of East Central WI receives the remaining percentage to coordinate the event. Race Day includes a 1 or 3 mile walk, food and entertainment after the event.

What does the Volunteer Center do?
The Volunteer Center promotes volunteerism and strengthens community service efforts by creating volunteer opportunities in which everyone can get involved. The Human Race is only one example of how the Center organizes collaborative projects that bring people together and supports the nonprofit community and services they provide. The Volunteer Center is responsible for the organization, promotion, and nonprofit/business education of the Human Race.
Why should a business or individual sponsor your nonprofit organization?
Be prepared to communicate your goal to others. Keep it simple and clear and feel good about your involvement. What needs to you meet? What services to you provide? Who benefits? Communicate the strengths of your nonprofit clearly so that potential sponsors understand its importance to the community.
