    Dear Contact Name

     The Gold Award is the highest award in the Girl Scouts.  Each girl identifies an issue in the community, then develops and implements a take action project which meets the community need.  It is a great honor to achieve this award. Nationwide, approximately 5.4% of eligible Girl Scouts ages 14 to 18 earn their Gold Award. 

    My name is _______________________________________ and I am working on my Gold Award Project.  Briefly described, my project involves:  

    _____________________________________________________________

    _____________________________________________________________

    _____________________________________________________________

    In order to make this project happen, I’m going to need support from volunteer friends as well as local merchants such as yourself.  I would like to set up an appointment with you to discuss my project and the identified materials needed.  I plan to call within the next few days to set a mutually agreeable time and date.   If you would prefer to call me instead, my contact number is __________________.   Please note, as items of support are for my project and not for the general Girl Scout council use, they are not tax deductible. 

    What I am specifically seeking assistance with are the following goods or services necessary for the successful completion of my Gold Award Project.

    I look forward to discussing this with you in the next few days.
