We need your help. The Takbong-Pangarap team will be on the road for 120 days as Joy Rojas, the Philippine's best female ultrarunner, runs 5,000 kilometers from California to New York. It is an athletic feat as difficult as climbing Mt. Everest. Be Part of History
For a donation of only USD100.00*, five kilometers of the dream run will be dedicated to the dream of your loved one.

A blank running bib where numbers are usually attached to the runners will carry your dedication. This running bib will be attached at the front of the shirt of Joy Rojas for five kilometers as she runs across America.

With the tri-media coverage of the run, your dedication might just be featured and broadcasted.

As a token of our appreciation of your donation we will provide you with a limited edition souvenir T-shirt with a photographic design of Joy Rojas with running buddy Mat Macabe extolling the slogan "No Limit to the Filipino Spirit" personally autographed by Joy Rojas and Mat Macabe.

The maximum number of shirts to be printed worldwide and autographed will be limited to 1000 pcs, making the shirt a sure collectible piece.

You will also receive an official certificate marking your participation in making this dream a historical achievement.

Furthermore, your name and the person to whom you dedicated the 5K run will be cited in the documentary book to be published about the first Southeast Asian woman to run across America.

Guidelines for the 5K Sponsorship

  1. The number of 5K sponsors will be limited to 1000 sponsors.
  2. The amount for donation for a 5 kilometer sponsorship is USD100.00 or Php5,000.00.
  3. 5K sponsors are reserved primarily for individuals. Within the maximum limit, 5K sponsors can donate as much as they desire.
  4. A 5K sponsor's form is to be properly filled up. This form is available in the website for downloading.
  5. While the 5K sponsor is free to write anything on the dedication bib, the Takbong-Pangarap team will set aside the original dedication if it contains any offensive language or derogatory content as determined by the team manager, and replace it instead with the donors name.
  6. In case, it is not feasible to have the actual dedication bib sent to the 5K sponsor for the 5K sponsor to personally write his dedication , the 5K sponsor has the option of sending the dedication text via email or through a verified text message.
  7. While the 5K Sponsor can suggest where in the route he would like his dedication bib to be displayed, the final decision will be left to the Takbong-Pangarap team manager.
  8. If the 5K Sponsor wants the limited edition shirt and certificate delivered to him by courier, he must shoulder the delivery cost which includes shipping and handling costs.
  9. The citations in the documentary book to be published will be arranged as the editors deem fit.
