Dear Friend,
Thank you for reviewing our 5th Annual sponsorship packet. I
am proud to represent a vibrant group of successful, intelligent
African diaspora women investing in Africa’s long term
prosperity and development.
As a sponsor, you will gain access to a largely untapped African
diaspora demographic, as evidenced by our 250 highly
connected women and their networks. Sponsors will also be
able to penetrate DAWN’s social media network that reaches
nearly 10,000 people a day.
Supporting DAWN’s 5th Anniversary Celebration means
supporting the dreams, pride, and goals of a rising generation
of changemakers. Help us create more professional
opportunities for our members and reach another generation
of leaders.
I thank you in advance.
