Dear Sir or Madam:
177 Royal Canadian Air Cadet Squadron (RCACS) has been in existence since 1942. Our Parent Sponsoring Committee is a not for profit charitable group whose purpose is to provide an expanding program to youth in the community. Our Cadets range in age between 12 and 18 years old. We hope that you will be able to take part in supporting our organization with a donation or sponsorship for one or more of the many exciting events that we are offering.
We support our Squadron administration in promoting the attributes of good citizenship and leadership through physical fitness, drill, marksmanship, drums and pipes, community service and stimulating the interest in the aviation and aerospace industry. 177 “Air Canada” RCACS, a unit of the Cadet Program, receives partial funding from the Government of Canada, through the Department of National Defense (DND). Our Parent Committee, in partnership with the Air Cadet League of Canada, must raise funds to support other costs such as training aids, equipment, outdoor activities, overnight camps, familiarization flying days for our cadets, and other expenses not funded by the DND.
To ensure inclusiveness, DND has mandated that we are not permitted to charge a fee for the participation in our program or for any associated activities. The Parent Sponsoring Committee’s goal is to raise approximately $20,000 each year in extra funds so that we can offer to our cadets a wide variety of programs. To meet our goals and provide these services to our cadets, we rely upon the generosity of individuals and businesses. As such, we would be appreciative of your commitment to supporting our appeal with a monetary donation, sponsorship, or donation of goods and services in the form of a gift. Your generosity will make a difference in our youth group by allowing our cadets to participate in programs and activities that we could not otherwise offer.
Thank you in advance.
