Current Corporate Sponsors
The Arc of
South Carolina, an affiliate of our national Arc, has recently
reorganized in an effort to advocate more effectively for children
and adults with Special Needs.
In South Carolina critical issues facing our citizens with Special Needs
and their families include growing waiting lists for services,
increasing number of aging caregivers, maintaining essential
services and family support services that are so vital for people
living at home. The Arc
advocates for education, housing options, employment opportunities,
choice and self-determination, and inclusion in the community
resulting in greater independence for our citizens with Special
Needs. There is a
strong need for innovative services and supports to supplement
state-funded services, for an independent voice to inform policy
makers concerning best practices in the provision of services, and
to monitor how well these services are being implemented.
We would like you and your corporation to join us in our
venture.
In 2006 The Arc of
South Carolina kicked off the corporate support drive in
the Midlands area to enlist 10 to 15 top
businesses to sponsor our efforts on behalf of people with Special
Needs. We are asking
you to make a $500 - $5,000 tax-deductible contribution.
In return, your sponsorship will be acknowledged on the Arc
website and on The Arc of South Carolina brochures sending the
message that your vital support enables The Arc to fulfill its
mission of improving the lives of people with Special Needs through
advocacy, training, and inclusive community opportunities.
Additionally, in conjunction with the Town Theatre, The Arc
sponsors a theater production each year and your $500 contribution
will entitle you to a ¼ page ad on the playbill for that production
which will be seen by over 5,000 attendees.
As we
look to the future, we are excited about opportunities for The Arc
to make a difference for people with Special Needs.
Won’t you be a part of our new initiatives in 2006 by
generously supporting The Arc through our 2006 corporate support
drive? All donations
are tax deductible.
We
thank you for your support.
I hope to have the chance to meet with you in person to
provide more information about The Arc of South Carolina and how you
and your organization can change lives of people with Special Needs.
Best regards,
Jack Hatfield
Executive Director
The Arc of South Carolina
