YOUR SUPPORT MAKES AN IMPACT

Sponsorship support helps offset the direct costs of producing the MKE5K, including participant safety, traffic control, hydration, event logistics, community wellness activities and event-day resources.

As the MKE5K continues to grow, organizers are working toward expanding its long-term community impact through youth wellness and scholarship initiatives.
