REQUEST

LETTER/EMAIL

Dear [Insert Name]:

I am writing to ask for your help. On February 20,2016, I have

committed to grin and “bear” it for the athletes of Special Olympics Maryland

(SOMD) by taking a chilly dip into Deep Creek alongside hundreds of other

warm-hearted people.

I know you are probably getting cold just thinking about it! But the cold

that I will feel is temporary and the positive impact this will have on the lives of

thousands of citizens with intellectual disabilities will last a lifetime.

I have set a personal fundraising goal of $[insert amount], and I need

your help to reach it! I am not asking you to take the Dunk alongside, but

instead, I am asking if you will make a donation to SOMD on behalf of me taking

the 2015 MSP/NRP Deep Creek Dunk. Any amount would be appreciated. It all

goes to a wonderful cause and every little bit gets me that much closer to my

goal.

In order to support my Dunk, please visit [insert KINTERA TEAM PAGE

URL ] or make a check payable to “SOMD” and return it to me in the envelope I

have provided, or you can mail it directly to SOMD at 3701 Commerce Drive,

Suite 103 / Attn: Dunk 2015 / Baltimore, MD 21227. If you do it this way, please

be sure to include my name in the memo area so that the staff will know where

to credit the contribution.

You may also visit

and click “Sponsor a Dunker.”

Type in my name, which will take you to my personal fundraising page, and give

you the option of making a donation online via credit or debit card.

If you want to learn more about this wacky winter event, visit

to find out all the chilly details. Think warm thoughts for

3701 Commerce Dr

Ste. 103

me as February 20th

approaches.

Attn: Dunk 2015

Thank you!
