Editor's Notes

- Use the Local Sponsorship packet/folder as a tool/resource to make local sponsorship “asks”. The Local Sponsorship packet/folder can be mailed to prospective sponsors, hand delivered or parts can be electronically mailed (Local Event Manager will have all documents in electronic form.)
- Picking good prospects to approach: people, companies, or organizations that have some type of “Special Relationship” with hemophilia, or with YOU. People Give To People – especially people they know and care about Using the Walk Local Sponsorship Folder & making a clear professional “Ask” on paper (in your cover letter) that the prospect can “process” within his/her company/organization Follow-up, Follow-up, Follow-up until you receive a “yes” or “no” answer Promptly thank the prospect on paper or in an email regardless of the response
- Goals of the Hemophilia Walk (What do the funds support?) Funding research toward better treatments and cures. Providing education to help people with bleeding disorders avoid debilitating complications and live longer, more active and healthier lives. Conducting advocacy initiatives at local and national levels to help ensure access to medical care and equitable insurance reimbursement for all. Building awareness of bleeding disorders and promoting early diagnosis. Asking a prospect to consider a Local Walk Sponsorship is an opportunity to educate about hemophilia and the important work of the local chapter and the National Hemophilia Foundation. Even if the answer is a “no” a well-done “Ask” should have achieved two of the most important objectives of the Hemophilia Walk program: To raise public awareness and understanding of hemophilia and bleeding disorders To remember that today’s “no” often lays the foundation for tomorrow’s “yes.” Photo: Wanted to show a Walk family with colorful Team T-shirts at the Northern Ohio Walk (September 2008) and this is who the Walk is helping
