Dear Potential Sponsor,

As one of the largest celebrations in the state, our celebration continues to provide something for everyone and who events include an art and essay competition, banquet, step show, youth extravaganza, an ecumenical service, spoken word event, and a day of service. Thousands of school children are given the opportunity to learn to communicate with each other about what it means to live in a city and nation that believes in freedom and justice for all. Our hope is for them to understand that as they live in freedom and are privy to justice for all, it is important to strive toward creating an environment that truly moves them toward unity, justice and peace for all.

We seek tax-deductible donations from individuals, businesses and non-profit organizations to help make this four-day celebration successful. We ask you to consider making a contribution to help defray the cost of the numerous events we have listed above. Included in this letter is a sponsorship packet you can use to determine your level of giving or you can choose to give any generous amount toward “Advancing the Dream.” Should you choose to make a contribution over $2,500, the MLK committee will have your company logo printed on the back of the MLK t-shirts that feature the winning artwork from the MLK Art Contest on the front. The deadline for any contribution over $2,500 is November 30, 2022.

On behalf of the MLK Celebration Committee Inc., we would like to thank you in advance for all you have done to support the community. For more information about the events or sponsorships please visit www.arlingtonMLK.com or don’t hesitate to call or email. Our contact information is below.
