To Whom It May Concern!<\/p>\n

I am a volunteer with The BIG Event, City wide clean up. I am a strong supporter of the Deaf Network and the deaf community! Thank you for all that you do in the community and bringing awareness!<\/p>\n

The Big Event is a one-day, community-wide service project to make Grand Prairie a better, more beautiful place to live, work and play. We invite individuals, families, businesses, civic groups, schools, churches, and everybody to be part of this dynamic day to give back to the community. Join the effort – we need your help to maximize the impact of this deeply satisfying investment!<\/p>\n

I am requesting assistance with my personal goal to secure 250 volunteers for \u201cThe BIG Event City Wide Volunteer Day!\u201d Volunteers do not have to be a resident to participate. I am reaching out to as many people that I can to reach my goal! With supporters like you and people in your network, I know I can! Working together, we can bring more awareness about the deaf community! You have my support!<\/p>\n

Please help me reach my goal!<\/p>\n
