Dear Friend,

Our 3rd annual WAAAlk for Autism will take place on Sunday April 2, 2017 at the Kirkland Marina from 10AM-2PM. This year’s theme is WAAAlk for Autism AND our Whole Mental Health Community! Our goal is to raise $75,000.00 that will be used for the continuing development of our Special Education Program. Due to our increase in members, their need for educational assistance around IEP’s (Individual Educational Plans) and student’s rights for those with affected by Autism; we need your support for additional resources to further develop this important endeavor. In order to meet this goal, we are asking for vendor participation from local businesses and individuals such as yourself.

By giving to this annual event you'll be supporting Washington Autism Alliance and Advocacy by continuing to help us provide assistance to those in our community and all around WA State. We ask that you will consider a vendor donation based on location of your choosing for your vendor booth. You will receive from your donation a 10x10 booth, one (1) 8-foot table and two (2) chairs, access to a target audience of approximately 1500 participants. There is an option to rent a tent for your booth at a WAAA discounted rate, otherwise you will need to provide one based on your needs. You will also need to provide appropriate signage, staffing and any table cloth or company SWAG.

We hope that we can count on you to help support our cause. You will be contacted in the next several days. If you have any questions or concerns in the meantime, please feel free to contact us at the above number.

Thanks in advance for your consideration.

Sincerely,

Vince Carmosino and Jess Silvernail
