Fwd: Potential Collaboration with Persist Health Project

[Sarah Elspeth Patterson]

Hey everyone, 

Here's a sample of emails I am sending out to companies (this one is to Leather Man, which we haven't hit up before), soliciting stuff for our gift bags! Any feedback appreciated, but mostly I wanted to give you an example to use for your own stuff. Link to the list of people I've hit up is here:

Hello!

I am the Executive Director of Persist Health Project, a small, grassroots health org in NYC that connects people in the sex industry with health and wellness resources. We often work in partnership with HOOK Online, which you may be more aware of.

This winter, Persist is raising money for a fund to support our community members around health and wellness needs that happen on the day to day, such as medication and toiletries - things that folks sometimes have a hard time asking for or getting. It's fundraising I'm really excited about and would love to tell you more.

We are in the process of planning our fundraiser for December 4th to raise additional money and I was hoping we might be able to work together in some capacity. We would love to bring your product into our VIP gift bags or offer discount coupons. We're also happy to promote Leather Man on our flyers and outreach materials (I shop at Leather Man for toys regularly). 

I hope this email finds you well and I look forward to talking with you further! 

Best regards,
