This Agreement outlines the terms, conditions, and expectations applicable to your involvement in the Driving Community Forward community sponsorship program.

  1. Agreement Acceptance

By submitting a sponsorship contribution and/or completing enrollment in the Driving Community Forward program, Sponsor acknowledges and agrees to be legally bound by the terms outlined in this Agreement. This acceptance is binding regardless of the tier selected or the method of payment.

  1. Sponsorship Scope & Use of Funds

All contributions made under this Agreement shall be combined with various contributions and funds from Crosstown Runzzz Inc. and its parent company, KayCorp Inc., and allocated to the Driving Community Forward program at the sole discretion of Crosstown Runz Inc. Sponsor acknowledges and agrees that their contribution is not designated for any one recipient, location, or expense, but instead supports the program’s overall mission to provide essential delivery services to eligible residents within Medina County.

Eligibility for service is determined solely by Crosstown Runzzz Inc. and may include, but is not limited to, seniors, persons with disabilities, individuals with mobility limitations, and other vulnerable populations. Updated eligibility guidelines are available upon request or via our official website.

Program-related expenditures may include, without limitation:

  • Driver compensation, contractor labor, and route coordination
  • Marketing, branding, and public outreach
  • Packaging materials, insulated bags, and delivery equipment
  • Scheduling software, website infrastructure, and dispatch tools
  • Administrative costs necessary for program execution and compliance

Crosstown Runzzz Inc. reserves the exclusive right to allocate all sponsor funds, including the timing, amount, and categorization of expenditures, at its sole and absolute discretion. Sponsor shall have no claim, input, or audit rights regarding how or when funds are utilized.

If you would like to pursue conditional sponsorships, we would be happy to discuss that in further detail. Please contact Crosstown Runz Inc. at 330-304-9088.

This provision shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

  1. Sponsorship Term & Payment

Sponsorship participation is available as either a recurring monthly contribution or an annual one-time contribution, based on the tier selected. All payments must be submitted through authorized autopay via credit/debit card or ACH bank transfer through your subscription “My Account”.

3.1 Payment Method & Autopay Authorization

By enrolling in the Driving Community Forward sponsorship program, Sponsor authorizes Crosstown Runzzz Inc. to charge the selected payment method on an automated, recurring basis consistent with the selected billing cycle with the payment method on file.

  • Monthly sponsors will be charged on the same calendar day each month.
  • Annual sponsors will be charged once at the time of signup and the same day each year until canceled.

Sponsors are responsible for maintaining valid and up-to-date payment information. Crosstown Runzzz Inc. is not liable for delays, failed recognitions, or missed benefits due to declined transactions.

No paper invoices will be issued unless requested via email. No checks or cash will be accepted.

3.2 Cancellations & Refunds

Sponsors may cancel their participation at any time prior to the next billing cycle, by canceling via “My Account” in advance of the next scheduled autopay. Should you have any issues, please call customer service at 330-304-9088.

  • No refunds will be issued for processed payments under any circumstances, including mid-cycle cancellations or unused benefits.
  • Annual sponsorships are non-refundable upon processing.
  • Cancellation within 5 days of upcoming cycle may be billed without refund due to automated processing. To avoid this please cancel at least 10 days before the next cycle.

3.3 Activation of Benefits

No sponsor materials, listings, or recognitions will be published or distributed until payment is successfully received and processed. This can take up to 5 days. You will receive access to your downloadable welcome packet with your sponsorship approval. Sponsorship status begins on the date of successful payment, not on the date of form submission (i.e. approval email).

Crosstown Runzzz Inc. reserves the right to adapt or substitute sponsor materials, logos, or formatting as needed to meet technical, space, or layout requirements.
