Dear

Swimming is a very important part of my life. I get to meet new friends, enjoy great exercise, and have lots of fun! I also learn important life skills like goal setting, self-discipline, and teamwork. On February 10th, 2017 my swim team, The New Richmond Area Tiger Sharks (NRATS), will be hosting our annual Swim-a-Thon fundraiser. The money we raise from this event will be used to support our team.

At this event I will swim as many laps as I can in two hours, but not more than 200 lengths. That’s 2.84 miles! I would love it if you could sponsor me and help my team meet its fundraising goal. Your entire donation is tax deductible. Any amount of donation would help our team.

Several times a week I train with my swim team, The New Richmond Area Tiger Sharks (NRATS). I work hard to learn all four competitive strokes. On February 10, 2017, I will be swimming for two hours or 200 laps (which is 5000 meters or 50 football fields) at our Swim-a-Thon. Will you please be one of my sponsors? This means you can make a donation of any amount, in my name. Please know that 95% of your contribution remains with my team and 5% will benefit USA Swimming. The best part for you…NRATS & USA Swimming are registered charities, therefore 100 % of your contribution is tax deductible!

I hope you will be my sponsor because your contribution will help my team. If I can count on you for your support, please either complete the form below and return it along with your check (payable to NRATS) or donate online at:

Remember when I told you that I had started swimming for a swim team? Well, it is going really well and I like it a lot. We are doing a special swim to raise money for our team. The Swim-a-Thon is Friday, February 10th 2017, and everyone on my team goes out and raises money. My goal is to be one of the top fundraisers and I am hoping you can make a pledge to help me. 95% of the money I raise goes toward helping my team and the other 5% goes to USA Swimming.

I hope you will be my sponsor because your contribution will help my team. If you can sponsor me, please either complete the form below and return it along with your check (payable to NRATS) or donate online at:
