Dear Mr. Jones:
The Acme Youth Center has been created to serve our large and growing youth population
through a partnership between the city and several service organizations, both public and
private. Our midsized city is in the early stages of economic revival, but is experiencing the
problems inherent with a large number of unsupervised and lower income children and
young adults.
We are seeking a $26,000 grant to use in our comprehensive approach to reaching out to the
youth of our community, including activities aimed at health, education, life skills, and
social enrichment. We also propose to create a single entry point to all the various services
available to young people through a series of partnerships with local community groups.
The lead agency for this effort, the city, intends to place a bond referendum before the voters
in 2006 for long-term funding of the Acme Youth Center. We are requesting financial
assistance to enable us to establish a pilot program that demonstrates the benefits of success,
thereby improving the chances of success with the referendum.
We are indebted to the Generic Grant Foundation for the guidance and help we have been
provided in the development of our project and the enclosed proposal. Win or lose, we have
benefited already from our relationship. Aspects of our planning will move ahead regardless
of outside funding, though our efforts would be enhanced greatly by your assistance. For
answers to questions about our proposed project, please contact Jim Smith: voice 555-555-
5555, fax 555-555-4444, e-mail jsmithr@email.com.
Sincerely,
Hand-written signature
