Dear Potential Sponsors,
My name is Mary Sabillena. I am writing to you and other members of the local business
community to introduce you to a very special project that I am working on and to ask for your
support.
I am in the process of launching Dream Catcher Healthcare, a nonprofit adult living home in
Tampa, Florida. I can think of no better way to say thank you to the generation that steered our
country for so many years. During my 30 years working in the medical field, I developed a deep
empathy with the elderly and found them to hold a great deal of wisdom. I built strong
relationships with them – relationships that were built on the foundation of mutual respect. I also
became interested learning as much as I could about age-related health issues, medical treatments
that are most effective, and exercises used in physical therapy for strengthening and range of
motion so that physical independence could be maintained for as long as possible.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 86.7 million people will be 65 or older by the year 2050.
This translates to an impressive 21% of the of our nation’s population! Many of them will remain
healthy and independent well into their 70s and 80s, but there comes a time when even the most
independent will face the challenge of managing to live without help. Family members will care
for some of them, but others will find themselves in need another alternative.
Believing that elderly care should be affordable, my
goal is to open an Adult Living Home that provides quality supervision and care in a home-like
setting that has a low operational cost and that encourages an independent active lifestyle. We all
deserve to enjoy our golden years in peace and security, and an elderly person’s financial status
should not factor in their quality of life.
I have a solid business plan in place, a source of staffing, a location, and a reasonable annual
operational budget of $159,517. In addition to reaching out to the community to help with startup
funding, I am also in the process of submitting requests for grants.
Your founding donation will directly impact the well-being of the elderly in our community who
want to remain independent. In appreciation for your support, your company’s name will be cited
on our website, our social media platforms, our signage, our press releases, and our promotional
materials. By joining others in the community who support our project, you will signal that you
are a ‘company that cares.’ We will also invite you deliver remarks at our grand opening.
If you have any questions about the Dream Catcher Healthcare project or our vision for the
future, please don’t hesitate to call me at 908-267-0520. I look forward to your support and your
involvement!
With deep appreciation,
Mary Sabillena
