Sponsorship Options

There are many ways in which you can sponsor me, and gifts of any size are appreciated. Here's what your money buys:

$1 - One Mile. Sponsor a single mile of trail, or a section ($1/mile). I'll send you a postcard from your section. $1 also buys: 10 packets of Ramen OR 2 Snickers

$10 - Ten Dollars gets me 100 packets of Ramen or a hamburger in town.

$15 - Fifteen Dollars gets me a night in a hostel.

$40 - Forty Dollars will buy me a night in a hotel, with a real bed and bathroom.

$100 - One hundred big ones will buy me a plane ticket home when I realize how freakin' crazy this whole thing is. It could also buy me 1000 Ramen Noodle packets.

To make a donation/sponsorship, please click on the "Make a Donation" button on the right hand side of the page. I'll mention you on my site and you'll have my greatest gratitude. Also, for larger amounts it may be better if you just send a check, since paypal takes a 10% cut.

Sponsor a State: You can sponsor a state for the number of miles in that state. Some states will be split up into sections (like virgina which is 800 something miles). I don't know how many miles there are in each state since I only have a section of the guidebook with me, but I'll ask Fly-By Mike to post that. Off the top of my head, the states are:

$80 - Georgia
$89 - Massachussets

Also, if I drop out or am killed/injured before reaching your state, you'll get a 100% refund. If I make it, I'll send you a picture from your state, along with sincerest gratitude.

Thanks,

Mr. Happy/Signor Felice
