This summer our youth group, Bethesda Youth Ministries, consisting of 11 students and 4 adults, will be taking part in a work week at Big Creak Missions in Kentucky. The students will be doing home improvements and repairs for low income families, providing community services, or facilitating Kids Club programs. The trip will cost approximately $329 per person including travel, lodging and meals.

To raise the necessary funds for this endeavor, our teams will be hosting a car, truck & motorcycle show on Saturday, May 28th. (We are enclosing a copy of our advertising flyer.) As part of this fundraising event, we will also be hosting a craft & vendor show; selling food and baked good items; giving away door prizes; and having a basket raffle.

I am writing today to request a product, gift certificate, or monetary donation for this event. Monies will be used to purchase trophies, dash plaques, goodie bags, and other expenses. Product or gift certificate donations will be used to fill our goodie bags, be given away as door prizes, or placed in the basket raffle. Your donation will greatly enhance our shows and give you added publicity as well.

In return for your donation, we will be happy to recognize your business’s contribution in our promotional materials, newsletter, on our website, and through other communications to the public. In addition, a complete list of sponsors will be included with each participant’s “goodie bag”. Bethesda EC Church is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations and all donations are 100% tax deductible.
