Support Our Local Youth

To the residents of our community,

My name is Kelsey Holt and I am a grade 11 student at Halifax West High School, currently enrolled in the International Baccalaureate Programme. I am a resident of the Hatchet Lake area.

I am writing to tell you about my upcoming trip to Poland where I will be acting as a young Ambassador for Canada with Coalition for Kids International. I am participating in the Coalition’s Journeys for a Lifetime program. In July of 2011 I will be going on a twelve day trip to Poland with five other teenagers to grant the wishes of many terminally-ill and underprivileged children in their homes and in hospitals.

After hearing about the extraordinary work that the Coalition does, and their commitment to children, I had no doubt that this was the perfect trip for me to participate in. Not only will it be a life-changing experience for me and the children I will help, it will be a great way to better myself and represent our community. I am seeking sponsors to help make this possible.

In order to participate in this exciting program I must raise $3900 towards the cost of the trip.  The Coalition has several methods that I can use to support my own sponsorship endeavours …

• Individual sponsors who support me will receive a complimentary copy of the Coalition’s 4-track Single and Music Video CD-ROM “Flight of Angels”. Recorded in London's Library Studios, by a collection of amazing artists and musicians, who all contributed their time, anonymously, to record and film the song as a reminder to everyone that each time a Coalition kid "takes off" to grant the wishes of terminally-ill and underprivileged children, they are taking a 'flight of angels'.
• Company sponsors who support me by contributing a minimum of $50 will have their logo and web-link displayed on the Coalition’s website for one year. Companies will receive an invoice for advertising which is a deductible business expense. Companies can send their logo to my email which I will forward to the Coalition.

More information about Coalition for Kids International and Journeys for a Lifetime can be found by visiting www.coalitionforkids.ca and I can be reached by contacting the BCHA. I would be pleased to meet with you in person at any time to tell you more about the Coalition and my trip.

Thank you for your consideration!
Kelsey Holt ☺
