2. Dear Sir/Madam,
There are more than 2.5 million cancer cases in India at any given time, leading to more than half a million
deaths in India annually. The cancer crisis in India is growing in large part due to lack of awareness. Tobacco use
has been steadily increasing, and there is limited access to timely early detection and treatment services. In fact,
two-thirds of all cancer deaths in India are preventable or curable if found in a timely manner. Unfortunately,
more than 70% of all cancers in India are found when the disease is so advanced that treatment is ineffective.
Acting collectively, major corporations, local healthcare systems, cancer organizations, and motivated
individuals can change this reality.
It is with great pride that the India Run for Hope hosts its 5th Annual 5k Walk/Run to be held on August 28, 2010,
benefiting the American Cancer Society’s India Cancer Initiative. The ACS India Cancer Initiative works with
emerging leaders and organizations in India to help fight cancer by expanding professional trainings, impacting
public awareness, and funding grants. These efforts create measurable outcomes in preventative measures,
allow increased access to medication, and improve palliative care.
With your help and support, we hope this annual 5k Walk/Run will help spread word on this crisis on a global
level, so that we may together break down the ignorance in our society, and strive to find better and more
effective ways to prevent and treat cancer. Over the past 4 years, over 20 student and community organizations
throughout metro Atlanta have rallied together to spread awareness and collectively raised over $40,000 for this
cause. In 2010, we hope that this event will have an even greater impact as we have set higher goals, and hope
to spread the program to other cities with continued and determined success. You and/or your organization
can help make a difference by providing crucial sponsorship funding that would ensure the continued growth
and success of the event.
Whether you’re a large corporation or inspired individual, you can reach millions of people in both the United
States and India with life-saving information. With minimal investment, significant savings from reduced
healthcare cost along with increased productivity and morale can be achieved.
Attached is a summary of the levels of sponsorship available for the 2010 India Run for Hope along with a form
you can return to us with your kind sponsorship. We thank you in advance for taking the time to review our
request, and ask that you support us as we continue to fight in the war against cancer.
Sincerely,
Uma Patel Sarah David Navami Naik
