Sponsorship
The heart of the Kansas City Express Mother’s Day 5K can be found in the commitment of our sponsors. Together, we’ve reached thousands of women and girls to promote women’s health through fitness.
We invite you to join us as we work to inform, motivate, and inspire women to exercise for better health. View our 2012 Sponsor Information for details and sponsorship levels.

Presenting Sponsor
Sometimes you just know a hospital is different. The friendly smiles, spiritual touch and the technology and environment that reassure you’ve made the right choice. In Kansas City, that hospital is Shawnee Mission Medical Center. Located at I-35 and 75th Street, we have the largest medical staff in the area—more than 700 physicians, 200 of which are female—including experts who pioneered practices in use around the world. But patients don’t just come here to get better; they come here because they know our care is multidimensional, extending beyond our high-tech tools and exceptional training to include a spiritual touch, the willingness to go the extra mile and a focus on life-long wellness. Come see why we’re much more than medicine. For more information, or to find a doctor, call the ASK-A-NURSE Resource Center at 913-676-7777, or visit www.ShawneeMission.org.
Platinum Sponsor
Unified Life is an investment of the William and Jean Buchanan family. Over the years the Buchanans and Unified Life have supported running events either by participating, sponsoring, organizing or volunteering. They do so because running and walking are proven ways to reduce the risk for developing many diseases, particularly heart disease, and because running events can be excellent vehicles for (a) educating the public about the benefits of regular exercise, and (b) motivating people to begin or maintain a regular exercise program.
