RE: 2012 WISE Sponsor Partner

Dear Sponsor Partner,

On behalf of Women in Safety Engineering (WISE), an ASSE (American Society of Safety Engineers) Common Interest Group, thank you for considering your commitment to support WISE. Last year’s partners included Adele Abrams Law Offices, PK Safety, Monsanto, Travelers Insurance, SPAN International, Spectra Energy, UCI, UAB School of Engineering and Summit Training Source as well as ASSE Chapters from New Jersey, Gulf Coast, Central Florida, Wichita, Long Beach, National Capitol and Kitty Hawk. As a completely self-funded Common Interest Group, your contributions help fund the WISE Business and Networking Event, the PDC Networking Lounge at the Annual ASSE Professional Development Conference, as well as special WISE projects and initiatives.

WISE’s membership, both women and men, has continued to grow with each year of great service to our members, currently with nearly 1,600 paying members! We fully expect these numbers to continue to grow as we head toward the 2012 ASSE Professional Development Conference, a great recruiting opportunity that historically has increased our membership. By sponsoring WISE activities, you can expect to reach nearly every woman (and many men) in attendance at the PDC as well as those not in attendance, via the WISE webpage and LinkedIn (www.asse.org/practicespecialties/wise).

In order to accommodate a diverse population of partners, our multiple levels of sponsorship are outlined as follows:

The benefits to you as a partner are limitless with the explosion of social media and WISE’s very robust LinkedIn site as well as our webpage. Additionally, we have successfully launched an electronic Resource Guide in which WISE Sponsor Partners will be prominently featured. The WISE Resource Guide is an electronic compilation of women-owned or operated businesses in or related to the SH&E profession as well as suppliers of SH&E-related goods and services designed specifically for women. (Corporate and individual sponsors, who do not offer products, will be featured in a special section of “featured” sponsor partners.) Your products and company will have direct access to the very target market you are trying to reach and support - WOMEN!

WISE will continue to grow, encourage, mentor and be a leader in the safety, health and environmental profession only with the support of people and organizations such as you! Thank you to all of our previous partners and to you in advance for your sponsorship!

Sincerely,

Kelly
