Dear Local Business Owner,

The Issaquah Valley Elementary (IVE) Parent Teacher Association is seeking sponsors for the 2020-2021 school year. This partnership allows you a unique opportunity to advertise your business to the families of the ~600 students in our school community. The attached page explains the sponsorship program in more detail, but I would also like to tell you more about our local nonprofit organization.

The IVE PTA Mission: To partner with school staff, volunteers, and the community to enhance the educational experience of children and their families, foster a strong sense of community and inclusiveness, and advocate for each child with a legislative voice. Additional information about the numerous programs and events we provide to support this mission can be found at ivepta.org, including the following (and many more!):

Help us achieve our mission this year by becoming a sponsor. While we typically host school-wide fundraisers throughout the year to accomplish our goals, we are hoping to scale back on this type of activity due to the financial impact many of our families are currently facing. One way we hope to do that is by partnering with our local community businesses so we can focus our volunteer efforts on safely and creatively engaging our school community and executing the programs and events our PTA plans to provide during this unusual school year.

Thank you for your time and consideration. We are aware that many businesses in our community are also experiencing financial impacts at this time, so we truly do appreciate any contribution you may be able to provide.  Please reach out with any questions you may have about the sponsorship program or our organization.

Sincerely,

Anne Blackburn

IVE PTA President
