NEEDING SPONSORSHIPS

Hello from the sales department of US Graphic Designs.Com. We are asking for sponsorships to get the 15 year Michael Jordan collection out into the public to show. We intend to show it in an effort to help our Dad who is battling cancer in Kentucky and other people in need. We are seeking Companies, and individuals who would like to have their name associated with this effort. People who are willing to step up to the plate and make a difference. You can read more about these efforts at either http://www.windycitycollectibles.com/ or http://www.usgraphicdesigns.com/. We did contact Nike, who wished us much success with our efforts, but it did not align with their goals. We contacted Upper Deck with no response and Gatorade also with no response. We would like to have Mr. Jordan's blessing and possible Jump Inc. sponsorship in this effort. We have talked to many people who have told us that they know Mr. Jordan and could get us in touch with him. But, most times it's on the terms if we can do something for them first, then they can help us. And other times it's just a bunch of hot air. This is serious, we are not trying to play games or cat and mouse. The closest we have come to letting Michael Jordan know about our efforts, is when we drove to Highland Park, Il. and stared at the gates for a moment , before driving on. We feel so bad that we are not better equipped to get in touch with him. Him endorsing or sponsoring this benefit would make all the difference in the world. People are also telling us that there would be no interest taken in the effort. But we say that he is going into the hall of fame in the next couple of weeks and this is the time to show it. To test that theory we set out to find the 6 Gatorade bottles of the limited edition set. Going from the Wisconsin line past Highland Park to the south, we found that these bottles were only distributed in Illinois at the Jewel/ Osco stores. We were told each store got one skid and were not able to re-order. Most of them, if not all only got two of the three flavors. Meaning no complete set at any store. These items are gone. Everywhere we stopped the employees said they flew off the shelf's. Sometimes not even making it to the shelf's. We think there is still a huge interest in Michael Jordan and all the accomplishments he has made on and off the court. We hope you have enjoyed reading about this project and will checkout the websites to read more about our efforts. By the way, we were able to secure the 6 bottle set after visiting many stores in Illinois. This is a effort to help others in need, so if you can get a word to Air Jordan about it. We would love to show and talk with him about our efforts. We would consider letting business' or organizations rent a display case of Michael Jordan collectibles for a day or weekend to help bring the curious and fans alike into the stores and places for added traffic, recognition and sales, if anyone is interested. Or if you have any idea's or thoughts please e-mail us at the websites. All idea's and comments will be considered.
Thank you,
