Dear [ Name of your Managing Director /Chief Executive Officer/ Owner/ Manager of your Employer]

 

You may be aware that Huntingdon Olympic Gymnastics Club has recently received planning permission to build an extension to its existing facilities.

 

With a waiting list of several hundred children, special needs adults and children and some of the best elite gymnasts in the UK training every day, the new facilities are long overdue.

 

The new building will provide a state of the art training facility for our elite gymnasts and training squads for 2012, as well as a massive recreational gym, fitness centre, dance studio, indoor bowls, judo, internet café, children’s play area and climbing wall.

 

The building itself will be a flagship building for East Anglia as it has been designed to be energy efficient and environmentally friendly.  It will also provide the best possible facilities for our special needs and disabled users. 

 

We are a non-profit making organisation and the club has to raise £3.5million!

 

My [son and/daughter attend/s] the gym [and I have x waiting to join.]  They absolutely love it!  They learn new skills, keep fit, learn good discipline, teamwork, and have fun!  They are inspired by the elite boys and girls and aspire to be just like them one day.

 

HOGC is truly a place where world- class champions and the community come together, so please may I ask for your support.  There are a number of ways in which you can do this:

 

  1. Sponsoring the building of a specific area of the gym -  e.g the internet café or the recreational gym etc.

 

  1. Making a straight forward cash donation – cheques made payable to HOGC, Clayton’s Way, Huntingdon, Cambs, PE29 1UT.

 

  1. Offering relevant merchandise or equipment in kind – e.g commercial catering equipment, building materials, furniture, office equipment etc – please contact Helen Bennett on 01763 838711 or info@helenbennett.com who can advise further on this aspect.

 

  1. By purchasing a specific piece of equipment for any part of the gym – e.g a pommel horse or a set of uneven bars etc.

We would of course be happy to recognise any contributor in the form of a poster or plaque of some sort.  We will have many thousands of adults and children coming through the doors of our new facility every single week – many who will spend hours looking at blank walls while they wait for their children!  Any business that wants to increase its profile in the community would undoubtedly benefit from being seen to have supported such a highly respected and successful organisation as HOGC.

 

We would be so proud, if when we finally open our new facility, we can say that it was as a result of the generosity, effort and creativity of the people and businesses of the local community.

 

Many thanks in anticipation of your support.

 

Yours sincerely
