Our Sponsors are our Ambassadors
Our
sponsors are in every sense, our
Ambassadors. For instance, when your
school has sponsors for one hundred cases of RONNIE
there will be 2,400 copies given to 2,400 families with young
people. Some of the books will go to students of your school and
others to students at other schools not only in your community
but scattered across the country. We estimate each book will be
read by three or four families each year and with a twenty years
shelf life or longer, each
book will touch hundreds of our youth.
And from comments we’ve received we know for sure that we
enjoy a tremendous and appreciative adult audience.
Because
of the purpose and intent of our program, you
will not find anyone who disagrees with what we advocate,
therefore, a commanding percent of those you ask will quickly
take you up on your offer to become a sponsor.
Make
certain that you explain our intent and purpose to every potential
sponsor and that you are not asking for a donation. You are, however,
working to spread a message and you are asking them to purchase
books at the same price
they would pay at your local bookstore.
The
books, in every respect,
belong to the sponsor to do with as he/she wishes.
We suggest and emphasize that sponsors give their books to family
members, friends, clients and/or customers who have children in
middle school, high school or college. And please suggest they
may want to send some books to friends and family members who
live outside your community or in another state. We want to reach
young people no matter whey live.
And
don’t forget, RONNIE makes
a perfect gift for any occasion.
I
have spoken with thousands of people concerning the issue of underage
drinking and ALCOHOL ABUSE and without
exception; everyone has expressed their absolutely support and
personal belief in the message that we advocate through RONNIE
and A MESSAGE FROM RONNIE. Not long
ago in my home area I met with the president of a credit union
and asked him to sponsor a case of books for a local high school.
He inquired as to how many books were in a case. I told him 24
and he countered with “I’ll
take six cases”. He donated them
to each member of the football, basketball and baseball teams
and one to each coach. In the Greater Pensacola area I have personally
found sponsors for more than 150 cases. Believe me, ours is a
program that everyone can and will graciously support.
