Description

To Whom It May Concern,


I hope this letter finds you well. On behalf of the students and their families at Prospect Sierra School, I am writing to extend a heartfelt invitation to you to consider sponsoring and/or making a donation to the Spring Fundraiser scheduled for Saturday, April 26, 2025.


Our mission is to inspire and equip students to create a more inclusive and just world through deep and meaningful intellectual engagement, self-knowledge, and care for others. Around 37% of our families receive flexible tuition assistance to better align with our values of change-making, equity and inclusion.


This year, funds raised during our Spring Fundraiser and Silent Auction will support the strategic transformation of our outdoor areas on campus, including the launchof the  first phase of exciting redesign of the Tapscott playground
and the revitalization of our Avis upper hillside area with a permaculture lens.


These improvements will have a profound, lasting impact on the educational experiences of our students. As we enter the second year of this critical initiative, we must continue investing in our school's outdoor spaces. Your support during this year's fundraising efforts will be essential to making this vision a reality and ensuring our students have the resources they need to learn, grow, and thrive.


Sponsoring or donating an item to our auction provides you with a unique opportunity to support our esteemed independent school while simultaneously promoting your business to a broad audience. Our community comprises more than 300 family households, and they will actively share our online event promotions with their friends and neighbors, thereby extending the reach of your message. Additionally, during the event itself, we will prominently showcase and advertise your business to our anticipated 200 guests.


We kindly request that donations be submitted by March 30 to ensure proper coordination. Prospect Sierra School holds 501(c)(3) non-profit status, and as such, your generous contribution is fully tax-deductible. If you have any questions or require further information, please do not hesitate to contact me. 

We sincerely hope that you will seize this philanthropic opportunity to support the future of our students and the growth of our school community.
