Subject: [Rotary Cub Rome International]: Polite Request for your support towards the "Red Gala for the Children of Sri Lanka" fundraising event



Dear Ms Smidt,



I am writing on behalf of one of the members of the "Former FAO and Other UN Staff Association" (FFOA), my Rotarian friend, Luis Miguel Ortiz, whom you probably know as an IFAD retiree. Luis Miguel and I visited your offices yesterday to talk about the fundraising event that will launch the joint Rotary Club Rome International and World Food Programme-Italia “Sri Lanka School Meals” Programme.

As agreed with your colleagues, I am attaching to this message some background documents on the joint Rotary Club Rome International (RCRI) and WFP-Italia "Sri Lanka School Meals" programme. The "Sri Lanka School Meals" programme is being funded by RCRI and implemented by WFP-Italia to feed 2,000 children in Sri Lanka every year. The Rotary Club Rome International has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with WFP-Italia committing to contribute €100,000 (one-hundred-thousand euros) every year for three consecutive years towards this objective. This is a major endeavour that our association of professional volunteers is undertaking to give a small contribution to the achievement of SDG2 (Zero Hunger), SDG4 (Quality Education) and SDG5 (Gender Equality).  The "Sri Lanka School Meals" programme aims at providing food, education and vocational training to children until they become independent young adults (age 18).

On Saturday, November 18, we will be launching our “Sri Lanka School Meals” programme during a fundraising event that we have called “Red Gala for the Children of Sri Lanka.” The event is fully organised by the Rotary Club Rome International in partnership with WFP-Italia and with the support of the Embassy of Sri Lanka. Guests will be Heads of Diplomatic missions in Rome, business leaders of the Italian and international community, friends from other Rotary International clubs in Rome, colleagues from UN agencies in Rome, some celebrities and the media.

The event’s programme includes a jewellery show, an art exhibition, live piano music with music from the most famous movie soundtracks, a dance performance sponsored by the Embassy of Sri Lanka, cocktail dinner and drinks, door prizes, raffles, silent auction and games. It will be a fun night with a humanitarian purpose, and we hope to count with your support and participation.

Tickets are €60/person.

We would appreciate it if the "Former FAO and Other UN Staff Association FFOA" could offer support by promoting our fundraising event among your members via email. We are in the process of getting authorisation so that the FAO-Coop can promote and sell the tickets for the event directly at the Coop. Tickets can also be bought via bank transfer and Luis Miguel can kindly agreed to drop by your office to deliver any purchased tickets for people to collect them at your office. Purchased tickets can also be collected on the night of the event.

I am attaching to this message our “Save the Date” flyer, a power point presentation about the “School Meals Programme” and the “Sponsorship Categories” proposal that we, the Rotary Club Rome International, have prepared for the event.

We look forward to counting with your support and hopefully also with your presence at the event.

Thank you for your time and collaboration.

Best regards,



Gladys
