Dear Ms. Helbig,
Greetings from the Ayala Foundation USA!
In behalf of our President, Mrs. Victoria P. Garchitorena, we are glad to inform you that the Board of Trustees of the Ayala Foundation USA has
recently approved your grant eligibility application and project proposal.
In this regard, we can now formally start our partnership in raising
the funds you need for your project. Concretely this would mean, you may now
inform your friends and benefactors in the US about your project and request
them to donate to the cause you are raising funds for through Ayala Foundation
USA. Likewise, on our part, it would mean, we will already start featuring
articles about your project in the E-bulletin and other media outlets we have.
As an added feature to this partnership, we offer technical assistance aimed at helping you come up with a
communications and fund-raising plan. This is essentially a session geared
towards creating effective campaign messages that would guarantee positive
response to your campaign for funds in the US. This session would also establish
further other tasks pertinent to our partnership. Please feel free to contact
us if you think you have a need for this service.
We further request that you inform your donors that they can send their contribution to your projects in the
following ways:

reports in a reasonable period after receipt of first donation. Your submission
of reports will allow us to constantly provide project updates to our donors and
encourage them to keep on supporting Philippine-based projects.
