Okay, here's the story...
I go to a boarding school in the new england area, and every year we have a discovery program where your supposed to 'make a discover' (learn something new) through a different type of learning experience then normal. One of my good friends wants to go on a tirp to England and France. The cost for this trip is $2650, and she can put forth about $400 of it and that is streching it. She is a junior who is an awesome student. She works really really hard in life, and she is on scholarship ot the school. Unfortuantely this scholarship does not cover the 'discovery program'. I'm trying to help her raise money so that she can go on this once in a lifetime experience. I'm not really looking for any individual contributions, but if any one of you have any corporate contacts, maybe in a pr or advertising department (even higher up would be good 😉 ) or work at a company/corporation youself and are looking for some way to get a tax break then maybe we coudl work out a deal that is good for all of us. I can offer only publicity for you and since it is a school, the donation is completely tax deductible (IANAL so you'll obviously have to go through our development office but I can put everyone in touch) Of course you'll also have the satisfaction of helping out someone who wouldn't be able to make this amazing trip otherwise. If it makes any difference, the school is located in the Connecticut area, and both my friend, myself, and any school officals would be happy to meet with you in person to discuss this further.
Thank you all very much in advance for you help, I can be contacted by PM, email at elmotheNO)*&^SPAMmouth@aol.com or by aol instant messenger at Mrdzone

On a quick readthrough I falied to mention that the trip is educational, and there will be worked produced from it to show that (journal entries etc...) also the trip does have a THEATRE focus somewhat, we will be visiting Shakespeare's birthplace and seeing shows in both england and paris, so any theatre troups out there, this would be great publicity for you too...
Remember, it's only polite--if you read you bump!
