Hoops 4 Kids
Sponsorship Letter
Dear Potential Sponsor,
Over the last thirty years childhood obesity has tripled, and the numbers do not indicate a reversal or slow down of this widespread health predicament. Michelle Obama has appealed to the nation to join her initiative called "Let's Move" to reduce childhood obesity.
Hooked on Hooping is proud to complement this program with a community health initiative called Hoops 4 Kids. Our goal is to get more kids moving and physically active before, after, and during their school day using hula hoops. Our hoops are special in that they are more durable and the weight of the hoops makes it easier to use, including overweight children. Physical activity is critical in addressing childhood obesity. Experts recommend kids get at least 60 minutes of active play each day. Vigorous activity is not just for better physical health, but also for better academic achievement, and mental health as well.
Budget constraints are everywhere, and schools rarely have additional funds for recess or physical education equipment. This is where you can help. Your tax-deductible donation to a school or youth organization of your choice can provide our custom made weighted (hula) hoops and a training program to help the entire student body and staff get movin', groovin' and getting healthy.
We have several donation packages available that are affordable, tax deductible, and can truly make a difference in children's lives. I'd be delighted to talk with you in further detail sharing information on how other schools have benefitted from this program.
Your participation and support for the Hoops 4 Kids Program will help children grow in all dimensions of their health. It's time to stop talking, and take action towards addressing childhood obesity. Our children are the future, and it is our responsibility to show them the way.
Sincerely,
|
