Like you, one of our priorities is giving back to the community for your many successes.  We ask you to consider supporting the St. Augustine Sunrise Rotary Club as a sponsor of the 2008 Rhythm & Ribs Festival and, in doing so, supporting many worthwhile philanthropic causes.

One key quality that sets apart St. Augustine and St. Johns County as a great community is the collective response we show to those who are less fortunate.  To this end, you and many other generous individuals and businesses, have helped St. Augustine Sunrise Rotary to create a memorable festival that draws people from near and far.  You – and they – come to this event to enjoy entertainment and great food while raising money to serve the many in our community who desperately turn to us for help in services for every member of the family.

Please join us in celebrating the 13th annual Rhythm & Ribs Festival.  Last year, with your generous donation, we raised nearly $40,000 for use by many important charitable organizations.  This year, our goal is to raise even more support for the many wonderful groups in our community.  Your support is tantamount to our success!  With your help, the Betty Griffin House will continue to serve battered spouses and children, the YMCA will provide summer camp for youth whose families could not afford to pay camp tuition, and seniors who attend St. Johns County Council on Aging events will receive physical and emotional support, Meals on Wheels, and other services.

Enclosed is a Rhythm & Ribs sponsor commitment form, and a reply envelope.  We would be delighted if you would choose to sponsor Rhythm & Ribs Festival.

Thank you in advance for your continued support of our Rotary motto of putting “Service above self.”  See you at the Festival!

Sincerely,
