Dear Friend,
Foremost, we would like to thank you for taking the time to
read our letter and wish all is well. As you may know, Exhibit Treal is focused
on using the arts to impact and empower our community. One way we aim to do
this is reaching out to our youth in Palm Beach County. We are a strong
believer in what art programs can do in their lives. The reason we are writing
you today is to offer you an opportunity to be an integral part doing so by
sponsoring one of our upcoming projects, “Treally Written” for the middle of
this month.
Treally Written will be a short story contest for African American
students who attend public middle and high school in Palm Beach County. We will
be reaching out to the schools and after school programs to spread the word.
The goal will be to encourage young writers to create tales based on a
particular subject that include their surroundings and people they know.
Pushing them to see their world more creatively.
Your sponsorship will play a major part in this because we
are looking to create cash awards and prizes for the youth involved. We aim to
have a grand prize winner from the middle & high school competition. Our
goal is to award that winner with a cash prize of $250. By showing the youth what their talents can
earn them, it helps to open up their perspective and realize there is more to
life.
We will also be partnering up with local visual artist and
through the sponsorships, we will have them create artwork inspired by the some
of the youth’s stories. It is our hope that we will amass enough support so
that we will be able to give the artist the supplies to create in exchange of
them donating the original works for an auction. And allow for us to put
together a book of the top 5 selected stories and art.
The proceeds from the auction and book sales, will be to use
to create a budget for our other projects geared towards the youth such as
spelling bees, debates, art contests and youth poetry slams. We strongly
believe in the power of the arts to help keep our children from the trappings
of the streets. All the while developing in them a sense of self-worth and a
focus towards their future.
Your support
will be awarded with more than a pat on them back. We do not expect anyone to
just give their hard earned money or goods away for nothing, not even if it’s
for the betterment of the community. So in return, while we do not have much we
are offering to those who opt to become a sponsor some packages.
For you sponsoring with $50 to $100, you will receive three
signed 11in x 17in prints by internationally renowned visual artist Jason “JaFleu”
Fleurant, company logo placement on our events flyer as well as acknowledgement
on our blog and the certificate award. If you opt to sponsor with goods as a
prize from your company, you will receive one 11in x 17in signed print by
JaFleu as well as company logo placement on our events flyer as well as
acknowledgement on our blog and the certificate award.
Together we
can be the change that our community needs. And together we can succeed.
