5/8/08 No Sponsor from New Balance, see below. Dear Jason, Thank
you for your request. NB supports a large number of non-profit organizations that work to improve the lives of children.
However, the focus of our giving is directly to organizations for specific programs that fit into our giving guidelines,
and not for sponsorships. Best of luck in your efforts!
Andrea Henry Community Outreach Specialist New Balance
Athletic Shoe, Inc. 4/8/08 I'm trying to figure out how I can raise at least $2,500 to Foster Care with Catholic Charities
but it seems like there are more restrictions as you can see below... I wish there was a way for me to see how much is
donated and how far I am from my $2,500 goal. Foster Care is what motivates me to raise money and I've got to figure all
this out soon!
Dear Mr. Mitchiner,
We received your email regarding raising money for our Foster Care program
through your participation in running in the NYC marathon. We appreciate your intention to donate dollars raised to our
organization. Contributions can be made via our website, or mail-in envelope, in your name and/or in honor of your running
the marathon; however we cannot permit the usage of our logo or website link in advertising and promotion of this event.
As Catholic Charities falls under the umbrella of the Diocese of Trenton itself, we are limited in the number of new fund
raising efforts we can officially partner with and hope you can understand our position. If you are still committed
to seeing the Foster Care program as the recipient of the dollars raised through your endeavor, we would certainly be appreciative
of the support and would recognize you as a donor in our annual report listings. Thank you, again, for your generosity
in considering Catholic Charities. If you have any further questions regarding this matter, please feel free to contact Mary
Anne Yeager, Development Officer myeager@cctrenton.org. Sincerely,
Joyce Campbell
