BOYS & GIRLS CLUBS
OF BROWARD COUNTY, FLORIDA
www.bgcbc.org

On behalf of the more than 12,000 children and teens that we serve each year, thank you for your support. Unlike many agencies, most of our funding comes directly from donors like you who support efforts and help us make life better for the members we serve. Without you, we would not be here.

I’d like to share with you some great proof of the impact that your support is having in our community. A recent survey done for Boys & Girls Clubs found that children who are part of our Clubs graduate from high school at significantly higher rate than the national average! Furthermore, Club alumni recognized that being a member of the Boys & Girls Clubs helped with their self-confidence and self esteem and avoid involvement with drugs or sex at an early age.

On behalf of these youth, I would like to thank you for your recent donation (s) of $200.00 to the Boys & Girls Clubs of Broward County. Your generosity enables us to continue these positive programs for thousands of children in our 13 Clubs throughout the country.

As always, I invite you to come take first-hand look at the good that your support is doing in our Clubs. If you would like a tour, we would love to show our Clubs; we are very proud of them and the work our staff provides. All that you need to do is call my office and I will arrange a tour for you.

Please always remember that you are helping to save these children’s lives and make their futures brighter.

Thank you for making this possible.
Warmest regards,
Chief Executive Officer


Happy Thanksgivings! We met at AMICI a few weeks ago when the restaurant held an event benefitting the American lung Association of Florida – Southeast Area. You mentioned that the Yacht Charter group, Inc. might like to support the 2nd Annual Oxygen Ball (March 27, 2004).

Let’s get together at your convenience and see what can do for each other!

Please give me a call and we will meet for lunch or something.

Thanks, YCG!
Sincerely,

Dear Yacht Charter Group:

Thank you for your participation in An Evening In Madrid. The event was a financial success.

Your generous donation of a 4 hour charter abroad a 72’ yacht is greatly appreciated and helped us to raise vital dollars to fund our ongoing quest for a cure for cystic fibrosis.

The refinement of gene therapy techniques, development of new drug therapies and new technologies for drug screening offer great hope for thousands of children and young adults with CF and their families.

We truly value your support of our efforts to find a cure and to improve the quality of life for young people with cystic fibrosis.

Once again, many thanks for contributing to the success of An Evening in Madrid and for your support of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.

Sincerely.
Director of Development, Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.

Thank you so much for your support of our recent Concours d’Elegance featuring the incredible Bill Cosby. The feedback on the event has been extremely positive and that Is in great part due to you attendance and support of our fundraising efforts.

Dear Yacht Charter Group,

Tremendous thanks for all your help with the council of Trustees Kickoff on March 21st for the Republican Party of Palm Beach County. It was a great success and we sincerely appreciate all the work you, your staff; Capitan Sean and his crew put into the event.

The boat was a perfect setting for our event and Captain Sean and his crew provided perfect service for the evening. Sid & I agreed —it’s not a bad way to spend a Sunday evening.

Again, thanks for all your help and hard work with the arrangement.

Please pass along our many thanks to the Captain and his crew.

Darrell gwynn foundation

Dear Yacht Charter Group,

I want to sincerely thank you for your generous donation of $300.00, which we received on April 11, 2012 in association with our Wheels of Dreams event at John Staluppi’s Cars of Dream Museum in West Palm Beach, Florida. This will help the Darrell Gwynn Foundation, a certified 501©(3) charitable organization, continue to support individuals with paralysis and prevent spinal cord injuries. By giving the gift of mobility, the foundation has enabled there individuals to return to work and school, attend community events, or simply play at the park with friends. This past weekend alone, we were able to give the gift of mobility to three deserving young individuals, dramatically changing their lives and enabling them to obtain a sense of freedom and independence.

However, there are many people living with paralysis across the country that still need help. With your continued assistance, the Darrell Gwynn Foundation will be able to impact countless lives, either through our education and prevention program in schools, our work to help find a cure for paralysis, or by supplying much needed wheelchairs to those who cannot cover the cost.

Now that you’ve witnessed the magic of a wheelchair donation, I would like to encourage you to consider making your donation an annual gift to help support our mission. You can do this by returning the perforated Gift of Mobility portion of the enclosed tri-fold. Your annual gift will help ensure that more individuals living with paralysis, like James, Tyler, and Madison, will experience a drastically improved quality of life due to the safety, comfort and independence that new, fully-customized wheelchairs can provide.

Kind Regards,
Darrell Gwynn
President

Yacht Charter Group, Inc.
Dear Yacht Charter Group,

With our 43rd Annual Dinner Auction behind us I just wanted to thank you for your contribution of the “Super-Mega Yacht Dinner for Eight” to our Live Auction.

In ther\se tough economic times we have come to depend even more on the funds raised from our live and silent auctions to provide the quality of programs and professional staff that our members are accustomed to.

You are integral part of our organization and our success is due in great part to your donation. They have been paramount in our success over the years and even more so in the past few years as the economy has plummeted.

Once again, I reiterate the most important part of our success in the kindness and consideration you have shown to those so less fortunate than ourselves.

On behalf of our Corporate Board, professional Staff and the youth that we serve I thank you!

Sincerely,
Chief Director of Special Events.
