Dear Friend:
The Tucson Urban League invites you to become a sponsor for our 39th Annual Grand Gala. This exciting event will be
held on March 6, 2010 at the Hilton Tucson El Conquistador. Our annual Gala is the League's premier fundraiser where
proceeds from this event ensure the vitality of available social services we provide to the community. Your contribution
will help support our community programs such as Prevention and Intervention, Employment and Training, Case
Management, Early Learning Child Care, Housing Resources, and the Intel Computer Clubhouse. Our programs offer
much needed resources to the community ranging from infant to senior care activities to everything in between, including
affordable housing, youth employment, job training, home weatherization, rental and utility assistance.
We are proud to announce that Roland Martin, a syndicated columnist, author and journalist as our keynote speaker.
Martin is also a CNN Analyst, appearing on a variety of shows including Campbell Brown, The Situation Room,
Anderson Cooper, Lou Dobbs Tonight and many others.
Additionally, Richard Davis, a partner in Mesch Clark & Rothschild, will be our Master of Ceremonies. His community
and professional commitments are numerous and noteworthy. Davis is an acknowledged expert in all types of Civil
Litigation, including accident cases and medical and hospital liability. His name and face recognition alone will generate
a lot of enthusiasm among our attendees.
As part of our sponsorship package we are offering advertisement opportunities in our souvenir program booklet. Last
year our program booklet consisted of over 25 pages that included recognition of our sponsors, advertisements from our
supporters, biographical backgrounds on our speakers, letters and proclamations from elected officials. Advertising in
our Grand Gala 2010 souvenir program booklet will not only bring exposure to your business, it also gives recognition in
the community of your support to the League's mission.
Again, your support will be key to the League providing much needed resources to the community we serve. Please
return your sponsorship information, and reserve your preferred program advertising space as soon as possible. If you
have any questions or need additional information, please contact Chandra Givens, at 520.79l.9522 ext 2241 or
