5K WALK/RUN Sponsorship Letter
October 20, 2018 at Riverside Park Victoria, TX
We cordially invite you to participate in our 2nd Annual SOAR 5K Walk/Run. This event will raise money to provide the youth of Mt Calvary Missionary Baptist Church the opportunity to experience African-American History at its finest. The African American Smithsonian, located in Washington D.C., provides a fundamental component of the human experience reflecting the world and the time in which we live. The visual art can help our youth understand their history, culture, lives and the experience of others in a manner that cannot be achieved through other means. It can also be a source of inspiration, reflection and joy. It is a physical reminder of the power of the Word of God. According to its founder Lonnie Bunch “there is no more powerful force than people steeped in their history and there is no higher cause than honoring our struggle and ancestors by remembering”. Through tangible witnesses in history, our desire is to inspire youth to become knowledgeable God-fearing adult.
