Sponshorship Letter

Dear [Recipient's Name],

As a member of the San Jose State Interior Design program I have an opportunity to attend the Senior Show at San Pedro Square in downtown San Jose. Each member of the team put a great deal of energy and hard work into qualifying to attend the Senior Show and we are thrilled to have an opportunity to hold this important educational event.

In order to represent our industry at the Senior show we have to raise $3,000 to fund the show. The money is necessary to cover food, beverages, flyers and invitations. We're contacting industry leaders like you to request financial assistance. This event is open to the public as well as family members and professionals like yourself.

Can the members of San Jose State's Interior Design program count on your support? Any amount you can donate will be greatly appreciated and will go directly toward funding this important event. Please contact Diana Seah or myself if you would like more information. Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,


Bernadette Siragusa
Member of SJSU Interior Design Program
