Thank You Letters

Ocean fm – Help a local child

Dear Steve, Julie, Jasmine & everyone at SBA Financial.

I just wanted to drop you a note to thank you so much for the £2000 raised from your GREASE Night. This money as you know will go towards helping disadvantaged children in Hampshire, West Sussex and on the Isle of Wight.

Your time and efforts are so very much appreciated as I know full well how exhausting these events are to prepare and pull off. I’m sure you were pleased once it was all over, but felt happy that the money raised will definitely be put to very good use in your community and surrounding areas.

As you know, since 2003 we have been supporting our community and the disadvantaged children within it. To date we have raised over £200,000 and this is down to people like you who take the time and initiative to support us.

This effort and hard work is truly appreciated and I can only say thank you so much again.

Kind Regards

Tracy Allen

Portsmouth Branch – Multiple Sclerosis Society

Dear Steven,

Many thanks for the recently received £2000 donation in support of our organisation. It was most kind of you & your colleagues to think of us. Well done to all those who made the ‘Grease Night’ such a resounding success. It is appreciated that these events take a great deal of careful organisational work, drive and enthusiasm. Please pass on our congratulations to all those involved for a job extremely well done.

On behalf of the executive committee may I assure you that the money donated will be put to very good use in supporting those people and their families, living in and around Portsmouth, who suffer from this incurable, debilitating disease. We have an ambitious programme of support activities for MS sufferers, which this donation will assist us in providing, including trips to local and not so local destinations, monetary assistance in the event of financial hardship, along with the provision of Yoga and Physiotherapy sessions as an aid to keeping fit.

Once again – Many Thanks for thinking of us.

Yours sincerely

Richard Biddlecombe

 

Moving Forward

Dear Steven,

I thought you might be interested in seeing a copy of our latest magazine ‘On the Move’ which features the revamp of the Disablement Services Centre. The monies we raised as a result of your fund raising effort back in September 2006, greatly contributed to this project.

On behalf of Moving Forward I would like to thank SBA Financial Ltd for your help and support. The project has made a fantastic impact and we have had a lot of positive feedback from patients and staff.

I hope you had a great Christmas.

Best Wishes

Mike Stoneman

The Rainbow Centre

Dear Steve,

It was lovely to meet you and your team on Sunday at the Children’s Christmas Party that you held at Horndean and to see all of your clients’ children have such a great time. I thoroughly enjoyed my visit.

On behalf of the children, parents and staff here at The Rainbow Centre I would like to thank you, Nikki and the team for selecting our charity as the beneficiary of your donation this year, we are very greatful to you and delighted to accept your cheque for £500. Thank you so much!

Our Centre is totally self-funded and needs to raise £40,000 every month just to keep running and to continue to help the 50 children that currently attend.  We not only help the children but also offer support and guidance to their families.

Money is raised by holding events, such as golf days, dinner dances and by also running re-cycling schemes for paper, toners, mobile phones and stamps. We also rely on support from our local community, individuals and companies such as yourselves, without whom we would struggle to raise the much needed funds.

Your help has been most welcome and you can be assured that this money will be put to good use. I take this opportunity to wish you and everyone at SBA Financial a very Merry Christmas and a Happy and Prosperous New Year!

Yours sincerely

Sue Hunt
Office Supervisor & Administrator
