To Whom it May Concern, 
 
VFC Kids, a children’s ministry of Valparaiso First Church, is preparing for our Holiday Gift Silent Auction Fundraiser. This fundraising event is especially important to us. All proceeds go towards the ministry and will support activities we have planned throughout the year.

The success of our fundraiser exclusively depends on contributions from sponsors, like you, who generously donate various items. Not only does your contribution benefit VFC Kids Ministry, but your business as well. Your donated items will be displayed in our main hallway, so more than 500 people will have the opportunity to see what you offer at your establishment, promoting your business. You may also send in business cards with your donated items to be displayed as well. 

 
Your donation can be in any one or more of the following forms: 
Physical Merchandise to be displayed in a gift basket 
Themed Gift Basket i.e Christmas, Sports, Chocolate, Spa, Coffee, etc. 
Gift Cards 

Your donation is tax deductible. Upon receipt of your gift, we will send you a thank you letter with our tax identification number to serve as a receipt for tax purposes. Upon request, we can send the ID number sooner. 
 
Thank you for your consideration to support VFC Kids Ministry and our efforts to minister to the children. 
 
God Bless You, 
Chloe Shoemaker 
Children’s Ministry Director
