Dear Prospective Sponsor: Thank you for your interest in Wine for Water, a benefit for clean water projects throughout the devel-oping world. This event is being held to help provide impoverished communities with access to clean water, sanitation and other basic quality of life improvements. This fundraiser is hosted by the follow-ing valued partners: Engineers Without Borders (Jacksonville), the Florida Section of the American Wa-ter Works Association, the Florida Water Environment Association, and the Rotary International (District 6970). The Haskell Company has generously donated their facilities for this event which will be held on Thursday, November 4, 2010 from 6:00pm-9:00pm. After years of working together on clean water projects, members of the hosting organizations have established the “World Water Alliance of Florida” to raise funding solely dedicated to these life improv-ing projects. This non-profit will continue to collaborate and represent its valued partners across Flor-ida to help raise the standard of living in developing countries. All projects will meet needs identified by the communities and will be constructed using labor supplied predominately from the communities the projects will service. Your sponsorship funds will directly improve the quality of life in these communities because all proceeds from the event will go towards funding these projects. Your interest in sponsorship of Wine for Water is greatly appreciated. We look forward to seeing you at the event on November 4 at the Haskell Company. Please do not hesitate to contact me at (904) 665-4642 or [email protected] for additional information regarding this event. Sincerely, Scott D. Kelly President World Water Alliance of Florida
