Corporate Sponsorships

Dear Friends of St. Michael's Academy,

Opportunity is knocking! We are confident that during these trying economic times, requests from non-profit organizations are more abundant than ever before. We know that funds in any organization are limited and that sponsoring worthy causes requires a sacrifice of precious capital. In choosing where to direct this capital we would kindly ask that you consider the effectiveness of your contributions.

Right now you have the opportunity to help make our 14th Annual Benefit Auction Gala a huge success. Our Auction is the biggest fund raiser we do. Our past successes have been a direct result of the contributions of caring businesses just like yours. One organization or individual cannot do it alone. However, with the combined efforts of the business community, our loyal staff and our tireless volunteers, we can make it happen.

We would like to invite you to participate in this exciting event. Please consider being a Corporate Sponsor for our Benefit Auction Gala on April 24, 2010. Proceeds from this auction will go toward scholarships for disadvantaged students so that no child is turned away and to replace our 100 year old windows so that we can keep the classrooms warm.

We have 3 levels of Sponsorships available: Knight, Lord, Duke. In return for any one of these level of sponsorships we will do the following in gratitude of your generous donation:

Knight (up to $1,000)	Lord ($1,000-$2,499)	Duke ($2,500-$5,000)

We look forward to honoring you by including your name and company on our live auction catalog. Please be assured of our gratitude, appreciation, and the prayers of the children, parents, and staff for your support of St. Michael's Academy.

We would also like to invite you to attend our Auction Gala on April 24, 2010, at St. Michael's Academy. Auction Gala tickets are available for $25 per person.
