Description

We are writing to you on behalf of the Brandon W. Smith Foundation.  This foundation was founded in 2017 to help bring awareness to the impact chronic health issues has on your mental health.  Brandon’s life ended tragically and our mission is to ensure that this does not happen again. The foundation is holding its third annual  Midnight Madness, “It’s Midnight Somewhere” event, a no-tap bowling event and tricky tray, on August 9th. This event helps raise funds that the foundation uses to provide scholarships, sponsor related events and bring informational lectures to our young adults.  Since our inception we have distributed over $20,000 in scholarships across many school districts. One huge accomplishment this year was our partnership with the BOCES and Clarkstown School District to bring suicide awareness training to the teachers and counselors. Through our efforts the foundation was recognized by the Clarkstown School District for our partnership and donations to the school to further the education on mental health.

In order to continue our mission, we are asking for your support.  Would you be willing to support our efforts with tickets to 5 Wits that can be used as raffle prizes?  These donations will further our efforts for our community.

Your business will be listed in the program as one of our donors.

We kindly ask that all donations be sent to:
