Subject: IMPORTANT: OCSD Youth Career Connect Grant-Request for letter of support-DEADLINE Jan
21st
All,
I have had the opportunity to speak with most of you personally and for those I have not please forgive
my request for a letter of support in an email; however, we are on a very short suspense date in order to
be considered for this amazing opportunity for our community.
OCSD and Workforce Development have partnered to apply for a $3 million dollar grant for establishing
a hand on Airframe and Powerplant certification preparation facility at the CHOICE HS. ERAU-W’s
involvement in this effort is to provide the curriculum, faculty and consulting expertise.
There is a summary in the attachment above and examples (examples only) for letters of support that
includes any sort of “in kind” donation. We must have MANY letters of support to make this happen.
I am asking you to please take the time to complete a letter of support for this initiative at your earliest
convenience on your letter head.
The deadline for the letters of support is Tuesday, January 21st by COB.
Any questions please let me know.
Thank you in advance for your time, support and letter!
V/r,
Ron
