<DATE>

Dear <NAME>:

On <EVENT DATE>, I will be walking with the <COMPANY NAME> Team in Step Out: Walk to

Fight Diabetes, benefiting the American Diabetes Association, at <LOCATION>. <COMPANY

NAME> has set a goal to raise at least $<AMOUNT>, and I am hoping you will join us by doing

one of the following:

TAKE A LEADERSHIP ROLE: Form your own team within your company. Simply designate

a Team Captain(s), set a goal, recruit walkers, collect pledges, and join us on <EVENT

DATE>.

MAKE A CORPORATE CONTRIBUTION: Support our team by writing a check payable to

the American Diabetes Association and mail it to me.

WALK WITH ME ON MY TEAM: Collect pledges, get a T-shirt, share the camaraderie, and

feel great in knowing that you helped save lives!

I am sure that you get solicited by several non-profit organizations each year, just as I do.

However, diabetes is America’s fastest growing disease and the American Diabetes Association

needs our help to stop this growing epidemic.

Every dollar raised through Step Out: Walk to Fight Diabetes supports critical diabetes research,

information and advocacy. <HIGHLIGHT LOCAL RESEARCH OR PROGRAM HERE>. In fact,

the American Diabetes Association is the only national non-profit health organization supporting

all 23.6 million Americans living with diabetes; people with both type 1 and type 2 diabetes,

children and adults. In a typical year, more than 75 cents of every dollar raised supports the

mission: to prevent and cure diabetes and to improve the lives of all people affected by

diabetes.

The goal of Step Out: Walk to Fight Diabetes is to raise at least $<INSERT GOAL HERE>. With

your help, I’m sure they will reach, if not exceed, this goal!

I sincerely hope that you will join me and help us reach our ultimate goal: to stop diabetes. If you

would like to form your own team, please contact <WALK MANAGER’S NAME> at the

American Diabetes Association at

<PHONE NUMBER> or <EMAIL ADDRESS>. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

<NAME>

The mission of the American Diabetes Association is to prevent and cure diabetes

and to improve the lives of all people affected by diabetes.
