Community Musicwomen Kim J and Crystal Sawyer at Rebecca Towers in Miami Beach

Dear Corporate Sponsor,

Our 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, Women in Jazz South Florida, Inc. is in it's 4th year. In the past three years, we've impacted our community greatly by bringing music performances by women, men and students to seniors, students and the community-at-large, through grants from Broward County Cultural Division, the Cities of Fort Lauderdale, Lauderhill and Miami Beach, and School Boards.

Our first compilation CD is for purchase or download on the Internet 

www.wijsf.com/JazzComp1.htm and www.cdbaby.com/womeninjazzsouthflorida 

We have 133 members: 59 musicians, 6 students, 24 men.

WHAT WE NEED:

Our goal is to embark on the EuroTour for Peace in June 23 -July 23, 2012, by offering a great opportunity to corporate sponsors, looking for visibility in the European market  for their business. Our banner will display our logo and the logos of sponsors a tax-deductible contribution of $50k-$100,000 for travel expense funding.

WHAT THEY GET:

Every time we are on stage, radio, television or reviewed in a newspaper, our sponsors will be mentioned and the banner will be displayed. A corporation could not purchase international advertisement of this grandeur for less than the sponsorship we are seeking.

The return on this investment cannot be determined, since the publicity needs of corporations interested in underwriting this venture are not known at this time. However, this should be considered a huge opportunity for any corporation looking to get their branding into international business circles.

WHERE WE WILL GO:

We plan to visit:

  1. Rome, Italy with a delegation of municipal officers from the City of Lauderhill that is twinning with Fiuggi, Italy.
  2. Montreux, Switzerland, where we will visit the Montreux Music Festival
  3. Copenhagen, Denmark
  4. Stockholm, Sweden
  5. Cardiff, Wales
  6. Belfast, Ireland

Our goal is to perform our original music in each of these cities with the expectation of being paid for each concert in order to build up our touring fund for future tours.

Please let us know if there are any investors interested in supporting women's music on this international tour. The artists slated to travel with us is on our MISSION page: www.wijsf.org/mission.htm

We look forward to identifying the corporations that will take advantage of this great opportunity to expose their products and/or services to the international community through this sponsorship of our EuroTour for Peace 2011.

If you or any of your colleagues need more information, don't hesitate to contact me.

Thank you,
