Dear Donor,

We are contacting you on behalf of the Shaar Hashalom Hebrew School of Houston (Tax ID 74-1900010) to invite you to support our largest, most visible community event of the year – the school’s Purim Carnival & Raffle to be held on March 24th, 2024.

You are receiving this letter because Shaar Hashalom families have identified you as one of their favorite local businesses! We truly hope you’ll support the community that supports you.

This year’s event promises to draw over three hundred people from the Houston area to raise more than $10,000. Typically, 90% of the attendees are from the greater community, making it an ideal opportunity for your establishment to attain positive exposure and goodwill amongst a diverse group of influential spenders.

We are asking for your help by donating a top quality good or service. We request that any gift certificate be valid for one year from the date of the auction through March 2025, and that all donations be received no later than March 20th, 2023.

Money raised that day would fund cutting edge curriculum, expanding teacher training and needs based student scholarships.

On behalf of the children and parents of Shaar Hashalom, thank you for your generous donation.

Sincerely,

Melissa Kirkland

Purim Carnival Co-Chair
