August 7, 2015 Dear Friends of the Billy Mock Foundation: In less than two months it’s time again for the Billy Mock Foundation golf outing! The golf outing along with the BMF 5K, are the two major fund raisers for the Foundation. Your support has allowed the Billy Mock Foundation to continue and grow in its mission which is simply “help others” in your local community of southeastern Pennsylvania and northern Delaware. We are an allvolunteer organization. 100% of your donation is used exclusively to fulfill our mission. The foundation executes its mission of helping others by: Helping local families in crisis by assisting with medical bills, food and gas gift cards, contributing to family fundraising events and assisting with household expenses Awarding educational grants to students in-need within our community Funding our Pay-it-Forward program to encourage others to be active in their community We would like to invite you to our 8th annual golf outing on Thursday, October 1, 2015 at the Edgmont Country Club. The day begins with lunch and an afternoon of golf, followed by cocktails, dinner and auction. You also have the option to attend the dinner and auction only. Please see the enclosed flyer for further details. In addition to attending the event we ask you to consider being a sponsor! Your direct support through a sponsorship helps the foundation achieve its mission and tells the community you, and/or your company support The Billy Mock Foundation and its good works. Sponsorships start at $100 for a Billy's Buddies and $250 for a hole sponsor. Higher profile sponsorships are also available. The Foundation is accepting donations of items and/or services for the auction and prizes for the golf outing. If you have something you would like to contribute, please refer to the enclosed donation form for further instructions. Our dinner and auction are promising to be another wonderful evening – we hope you will plan to join us for all the festivities. If you have any questions concerning sponsorship opportunities, please contact Peter Mariani at 610-745-5857 petermariani@comcast.net.
