 Subject: Become a Friend of the Awaken Café We are offering our friends, family, and community members an exciting and innovative way to play an important role in co-creating the Awaken Café. The “Friends of the Awaken Café” program provides gift cards for advanced purchase. For $1000, “Friends of the Café” receive a $1250 gift card that can be used to make purchases at the Awaken Café when it opens in 2007. In addition to the additional 25% in value, each gift card you purchase gives you: • Front-of-the-line free admission for you and a guest for 10 Awaken Café events of your choice, • VIP invitations to our opening gala, gallery openings, and other invite-only events, and • An Awaken Café travel mug and a sweat-shop free Awaken Café T-shirt. This program creates an affordable pathway for a wide section of the community to play a role in the creation of the Awaken Café. It’s an exciting win-win where everyone involved receives value. Along with voting for a business that is committed to making a difference in the community and in the world, you get your money back in purchases, an additional $250 in value, and membership perks. In addition to $100,000 already raised by the Awaken Café, and other expected sources of funding, this program makes up an important and necessary component of our forecasted financial needs. That is to say the proceeds from the sale of the gift cards will give us an important addition to our start-up funds needed to open the Awaken Café. To become a Friend of the Café by purchasing one or more gift cards for yourself or as gifts please go to our website at: Another important role to play in this program could be to share this opportunity and the Awaken Café vision with your friends, family, and community members. Working together something extraordinary is possible, and we invite you to help spread the word and forward this email to your communities. We thank you for your time and attention in considering becoming a "Friend of the Awaken Café" and for those of you who choose to purchase a gift card, we thank you for your generous support of the Awaken Café and helping us to reach our goal of selling 125 gift cards by 2007! Peace and Blessings, Cortt Dunlap & Kari Christensen |
