Dear Friend,
The T.J. Martell Foundation has played a vital role in funding innovative research for the treatment and cures of leukemia, cancer and AIDS. Unfortunately, more and more people are affected by one of these diseases either personally, or through a relative or friend.
Each year, the T.J. Martell Foundation brings together 1,200+ of the nation’s top executives from the worlds of music, entertainment, and many other fields for our signature Humanitarian Award Gala. Over the past thirty-two years, we’ve honored many prominent individuals for their achievements as well as their commitment and leadership to helping others.
The event will be held on October 23rd at the New York Hilton in midtown Manhattan Our entertainment for the evening is still being finalized but as always, will be stellar. In the past our performers have included; Stevie Wonder, Tony Bennett, Celine Dion, Aretha Franklin, Eric Clapton, Sheryl Crow, Mary J. Blige, Norah Jones, John Legend, Big & Rich, Michael McDonald, Brian McKnight and Justin Timberlake!
Once again, we are working with our friends from Continental Airlines to make our auction another success. The auction is a huge focal point at the event and it is talked about for months after because of the wonderful items we feature. This year, we’ve decided to make the auction smaller and more exclusive, offering up only spectacular, truly unique items. An item like yours would make the perfect auction item and would garner much attention, let alone plenty of high bids all which fund our cancer research at eight funded medical facilities nationwide.
We are anticipating a huge turn-out for this event with amazing media opportunities, not to mention the high-rollers of all industries attending. Please use the enclosed form for your donation, so we can properly credit your company in our journal and send along any promotional materials that we can use to advertise your item at the event.
We thank you in advance for your support and we are hopeful that someday soon we will find a cure for these devastating diseases.
If you require further information, please don’t hesitate to contact us at: (212) 833-5444.
Sincerely,
Gregory Plage Mike Brzostowski Mary Ellen Burke
