I need Sponsorships for national American Miss Pageant?

Question

I need to raise $440 for the National American Miss Pageant. The money is due on June 21. Please help me! it's hard to find businesses that will help and I don't have much to sell.

Answer 1

Hey, haha I just sent in my add money today.

Try going to a bunch of buisnesses or family's you know and asking each for $5-15.  It adds up quick.  I did that for my sponsership fees and adds and I raised my fees, 3 buisness card adds, and 1 optionals worth of money in about 5 days

Answer 2

Try family and friends first, then hoof it and go to businesses in your area. Here is a letter you can copy and hand out to the businesses. Customize the letter to your pageant system. Also, it helps to attach a wallet sized photo to the top left hand side of the letter!

Dear Potential Sponsor,

I would like introduce myself. I am a young lady who will be participating in the  (pageant system)                   Pageant this (month). This pageant system is a natural pageant system designed to help promote self confidence, self esteem, and natural beauty in ALL its contestants. I am looking forward to participating in this great experience. Especially being able to meet new friends, all while earning prizes and awards. I am hoping to reach one of my many goals by selling ad pages. Ad page sales are those in which you would typically see in a high school year book. they can be ads from businesses, family members or friends. Each ad page is the cost of fifty dollars. Ad page sales are tax deductible as a sponsorship and can be used as a tax write off. Each add page will be submitted into the (pageant) program book. These books will be seen all throughout the region. For businesses this is a great way to advertise your company or your product. For family and friends........what a great way to show your favorite contestant your support with a personal message. There will be awards given to every contestant selling at least one ad page. The more ad pages the contestant sells, the greater the prizes and awards become. I would like to thank you in advance for your support in helping towards making this an unforgettable experience for me.

Signed,

Your (pageant system) Contestant

(your name)

Good luck, I hope this helps you!!
