Description

I hope you’re doing well! I am a Summer Assistant at Futures and Options, a nonprofit that empowers New York City’s youth, particularly youth of color and students from historically underrepresented communities, to acquire transferable professional skills, pursue higher education, and successfully compete in a global 21st century economy.  We are planning our 12th annual Dream Big: A Celebration of Opportunity, to be held on Thursday, October 20, 2022 at The Plaza. This event helps us raise money for our programming. We are requesting an in-kind donation to be used in our silent auction or raffle.

 

The event gathers 500 supporters, most of whom are senior-level, working professionals in New York City.  We know they would be very excited about the inclusion in our silent auction or raffle and make the evening an enormous success.

 

We will acknowledge the contribution on our website, event signage, and in Futures and Options’ 2023 Annual Report.

 

Futures and Options is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization (EIN: 13-4063658).  Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions.

 

Our work is impossible without the wonderful and generous support of people like you, and I genuinely thank you for your time and consideration!

 

Sincerely,

Zaia Williams
