Dear Friend of Heart,

The American Heart Association is preparing for its 27 th Annual Midlands Heart Ball
on
February 18, 2017. The 2017 event is expected to raise over $200,000. The
money raised at this event will fund research and education to impact dreadful
health issues caused by cardiovascular disease and stroke.
The Midlands Heart Ball has raised more than $2.6 million since its inception 27
years ago. Last years live and silent auctions raised more than $30,000 combined.
Our event is one of the Midlands oldest black tie functions and is attended by
leaders from the corporate, medical and social communities.
I am asking for your support by making a donation to our auction.
Attached is an auction contract for you to complete. You can either fax the form to
the American Heart Association at (803) 787-0804 or mail it to our office at 190
Knox Abbott Dr., Suite 301 Cayce, SC 29033.
We are aware many organizations will solicit donations throughout the year and our
hope is that you will find the research and education efforts of the American Heart
Association fit with your giving priorities.
Thank you for your support. If I can answer any questions, please contact me at
(803) 806-3020 or via e-mail at Amanda.butler@heart.org
Sincerely,

Amanda Butler
Director of Development
American Heart Association
