Dear Sir/Madam,

The Urban Buddhist Monk, Ven. Dr. Bhante Saranapala has been an ardent advocate of mindfulness and its profound effect on the individual and society. To further advance the cause, a program dubbed “Canada: A Mindful and Kind Nation - Making Canada a more Mindful and Kinder Nation” has been planned with the following philosophy and objectives.

Through the Mindfulness is the awareness of inner transformation we are bringing to the public, that all personal and social problems can be eliminated simply by changing negative mind to a positive mind. This can be achieved by planting the seeds of good values in every individual, irrespective of ethnic and religious background.

Vision and Mission

• To bring awareness of good values in people
• To promote physical and mental fitness and mental health
• To promote a way of life based on tolerance, concord and kindness
• To promote good will and harmony in action, speech and thought
• To make Canada the happiest, healthiest, kindest and the most peaceful nationthrough mindful meditation

To this end, a Committee devoted to this cause is organizing an event the 3rd annual “Mindful Canada Symposium” which affords Canadians of all walks of life to experience an introduction to mindful meditation and the subsequent effect on the human mind. The event is scheduled for Saturday, September 28 at the OE Banquet & Conference Centre, 2245 Speers Road, Oakville, Ontario L6L 6X8.

As you are aware, hosting an event of this stature calls for sponsorships to cover the many expenses required. Therefore, we humbly request that you consider sponsorship based on the list below. Your sponsorship will not only ensure the success of this socially significant event but the establishment of a program and resulting awareness that will have far reaching effects in the community at large.

We thank you for your consideration and generosity.

Sincerely
