Description

To Whom It May Concern,

The team at Humans for Good is delighted to be back with our 12th Annual Richmond Mom Prom! We will host the women of Central Virginia on Saturday, March 9, 2024, at The Marriott Downtown for an unforgettable night of fun and fundraising!

Humans for Good is a nonprofit organization in Virginia focused on a lifestyle of doing good, emphasizing issues related to women and children. We ignite change by shining light on unmet needs in our locality and educating on the importance of elevating the voices of marginalized communities. Many who come to Humans for Good for aid have incredibly ill children, leading us to support local children's hospitals for many of our most significant endeavors. We step up to the plate for domestic violence survivors, unhoused families, children living with food insecurity, and much more. We implore our youth to be active participants in helping with fundraising projects to aid those less fortunate. We are more than an organization that gives back- we are humans for the good of every person.

The Richmond Mom Prom is an event by Humans for Good that has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for various Central Virginia organizations that aid our youth and their families. For our 2024 event, we are thrilled to be benefitting a small, local nonprofit founded by a Chesterfield mother called Worthdays. Worthdays is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization whose mission is to mobilize our community to ensure that those impacted by the foster care system know that they are important, worthy, and celebrated. Through the excitement of celebrating, they engage our community in a way that raises awareness and increases positive outcomes for our local foster care system. Through their partnerships with local Departments of Social Services, they are able to meet some often overlooked needs of kids in our foster care system, while using every opportunity to send the message that 'you are so worth it' to these important young people.

We offer opportunities to aid our mission through sponsorships and accept donations for our silent auction. Humans for Good is a registered nonprofit; all financial contributions are tax-deductible, and every business or individual donating over $250 will automatically receive a tax receipt. (Receipts for lower donations by request.) We have various tiers with perks, such as live interviews on our page, banner spots, tickets, and much more. Humans for Good Tax-Id number is 84-3936710. If your business is equipped to donate an auction item, those will be placed with like-items and sold to the highest bidder at the event; this is an incredible fundraising tool to assist us in reaching our goal. Whether you sponsor or donate to the auction, we are happy to place advertising material in swag bags if promoting your business is of interest. (Note: they don't go to everyone in attendance. Bags are given to high-dollar sponsors, VIP tables, and the first ladies to arrive, capped at 150.) Remember this is optional and is a "thank you" from us; we do not want it to feel burdensome.

We sincerely appreciate your consideration in helping this program provided by beloved community staple Worthdays; they are doing incredibly important work, investing in the future by supporting the children who need it the most. Please do not hesitate to ask questions surrounding our charge's support.

Sincerely,

Erica Fulcher
