-Becoming A Sponsor-

Who Can Become a Sponsor?

YOU CAN! You can become a sponsor on behalf of yourself, your family, your community service club or company!

Why Sponsor Tour Da U.P.?

Are you concerned about the care and support that is available for troubled children in Upper Michigan? Are you interested in promoting health and fitness, specifically recreational cycling? Perhaps you simply love Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Whatever the reason, sponsorship of Tour Da U.P. allows you to support a great recreational bike ride along Lake Superior, while helping Teaching Family Homes of Upper Michigan to continue providing services for kids and families in need. Teaching Family Homes is a private, non-profit organization, which qualifies for tax-deductible contributions as a 501(c)(3) organization - caring for Upper Peninsula children and families for the past twenty-five years.

What Are My Options?

Become a member of the Miles for Smiles Membership Club by contributing much needed products and services. Examples include civic groups serving meals; companies providing refreshments, communication and transportation; and individuals/small businesses sending donations. Not only will your contribution help to offset the tour expense, but also to assist with continued programs and services offered by Teaching Family Homes to help children in need. All contributors will be recognized on Tour da U.P. t-shirts and will also be included on our website!
