Dear (Name, Fellow Professional):

Our community's arts organizations continue to grow and gain strength due, in large part, to the community's support of the annual United Performing Arts Fund (UPAF) campaign. Thirty-four Member and Affiliate organizations sustain the highest level of quality and success as a result of our contributions.

(Insert Company name) is proud to play a role in making world-class performances and various outreach efforts accessible to all through its involvement in the UPAF campaign. By contributing to the 2012 United Performing Arts Fund Campaign, you are assisting underserved audiences and over 400,000 students in 50 counties statewide through UPAF beneficiary group performances or education programs.

Please mark your calendar for our annual UPAF kick off on (insert date/time/place). This is your chance to hear about how the arts directly affect you and to learn how your donation truly makes our community a better place to live and work.

Please join me, your co-workers and the nearly 22,000 other individuals who realize the benefit of having a strong and healthy arts community. Donors of $100 or more to the 2012 UPAF Campaign will receive the UPAF smART Card, which enables you to buy one ticket and receive another ticket free-of-charge to the show of your choice at each of our 15 UPAF Member Groups - a savings of up to $400!

Your participation in this campaign is vital and greatly appreciated. Thank you!
