Fundraising Letter

Fundraising Letter


My name is Brittney Oden. I am writing today for my son, Kyle. He is 3 yrs old and has a brain tumor on his optical nerve that even after 13 months of chemo he has left him blind in the right eye. Kyle has a condition called Neurofibromatosis or NF for short. With this condition tumors can grow on any nerve in your body.

I am the Phoenix affiliate for "Children's Tumor Foundation". CTF is an organization that helps raise funds for research, brings awareness to the community and connects families affected by NF. They are making great strides and currently have drugs in clinical trials. There is currently no cure for NF and for my son treatments were limited to chemo or surgery. For Kyle surgery wasn't an option so we underwent chemo.

I am doing a fundraiser for CTF March 2011. Our fundraiser “Spring For A Cure” will be a Carnival”. Below is a current wish list of items we are looking for to help assist us in our fundraiser. I would appreciate any assistance you would be able to help with in this matter. I look forward to hearing from you and I appreciate your time.

Concession Foods
Would your company like to sponsor a carnival booth?
Carnival prizes, tickets or armbands
Monetary donations
Decorations

These are just some ideas. If you can think of any other way you would like to help please feel free to contact me at springforacure@yahoo.com

Thank you,
Brittney Oden
