Good day!  We are writing to you on behalf of the Junior League of Philadelphia, Inc. to ask for your support of the League’s 11th Annual Fête fundraising event and to continue our organization’s remarkable 111-year legacy of service. 
 
This annual event raises money for the League’s community projects, which address hunger and food insecurity in our community.  Whether it’s creating community gardens or providing nutritious meals to families in need, the Junior League offers women an opportunity to make meaningful change happen.  In years past, we hosted hundreds of guests who have helped us raise thousands of dollars through a silent auction and raffle of donated goods and services from Philadelphia businesses like yours. 
 
This year’s event is being held on Friday, October 27th, 2023 at U-Bahn in Philadelphia.  We hope that you will join us in raising money for this important cause by making a tax-deductible donation toward our efforts.  We are in need of all types of items from tickets to the big game, admission to a tour of a special Philadelphia landmark, professional services, gift baskets, or even autographed items. The JLP has over 900 members with a diverse array of backgrounds, interests, and professions.  
 
If you are interested in donating an item to the auction, please contact the Focus Fundraising Committee co-chairs Jessica McNamara and Tamara Feagins at focusfundraising@jlphiladelphia.org.
