Hi,
to whom it may concern: <<< Don't say this. Find the person's name, or start 'Dear Sir'. eg Call the business and ask for the manager's name.
I am requesting sponsorship for my fourth class spring trip to New York City. I'm the language arts and social studies teacher
in Dekalb County. I believe that my students will learn beyound the classroom. You need to be as speciifc as possible as to what you want. eg Money - How much? What will it be spent on?
You need to explain more why the business should sponsor you. In what way will they benefit from doing so?
If they decide to sponsor you, what should they do next?
You also need to express your future gratitude.
Best wishes, Clive
