YES I CAN TEXAS HOLD EM' TOURNAMENT
2008-2009
To Whom It May Concern:
I write to you on behalf of the YES I CAN students of the William S. Hart District, specifically in request of your assistance to produce our 6th Annual Summer Meltdown Autism Awareness and Social inclusion concert. The YES I CAN program combines students with special needs, possessing a wide spectrum of disorders with general education mentors. The students spend the majority of the year working towards the common goal of throwing the Summer Meltdown concert. The majority of the students with special needs have a form of Autism known as Asperger's Syndrome. Although often gifted academically, their major area of deficit is their ability to socialize and communicate with peers. This is why it is essential to provide these students with the opportunity to challenge them to work together and practice the techniques they've been taught through the program. The costs of producing the concert are covered through class fundraisers, donations, and sponsorships.
In the past, donations and sponsorships included: Fender Guitar, VH1, REMO Drums, DW, Volcom, Andy Gump, AV Party Rentals, The Milken Family Foundation, NLA, and other local businesses. Their assistance helps provide concert shirts, backstage passes, and food for the YIC students. For more information on the Summer Meltdown please visit, www.sponsorthemeltdown.com, www.myspace.com/yesicaneducation .
Over the past five years, local businesses, have contributed through direct monetary donations, gift certificates, and sponsorships. These donations have helped us book national talent and cover all demands in the artistsÂÂÂ rider. Over the last 5 years, we have booked Zack Hexum, Smile Empty Soul, Fishbone, Phunk Junkeez, and last year we had Trapt/Stephen Perkin's of Jane's Addiction perform in the 2,000 seat outdoor amphitheatre at Golden Valley High School. This years Summer Meltdown Concert is set for May 16, 2009 in the same location.
We ask that you please consider making a contribution to this very worthy cause; the form of which is entirely up to you. We are still in need of a headliner for this years Summer Meltdown. If you sponsor us, you will be given a tax identification number for tax-deduction purposes as well as listings as valued sponsor on all fliers, posters, and all professionally printed materials. If you have an interest in helping us in any way, please contact the representative who gave you this letter, or the program advisor at Golden Valley High School (661) 298-8140 ext. 1414, email blieber@hartdistrict.org,
