Sample Letter to Request Support

(Date)

Dear Representative,

Special Olympics Ontario-(Community) is the local level of Special Olympics Ontario, which is part of a dynamic world-wide, not-for-profit organization dedicated to enriching the lives of people with an intellectual disability through involvement in sport. 

As a volunteer-driven organization, the support of local businesses is important for the success of our programs. Sponsorship and fundraising allows Special Olympics athletes to access appropriate equipment and training venues, affords them the opportunity to compete locally and elsewhere, and helps offset the cost of uniforms. Such support results in our members participating in quality programs. 

(Introduce your need for a donation and how it will be used: eg., item for a silent auction to raise funds for the swim team, a cash donation to offset the cost of the curling team to attend Games, etc.)

Thank you for considering our request for support. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any suggestions.

Sincerely,

(Name & Title)

Special Olympics Ontario – (Community)
