Southeast Ventura County YMCA Seeks Sponsors For 12th National Day Of Prayer Breakfast

March 7, 2011 - PRLog -- WESTLAKE VILLAGE, CALIF.--The Southeast Ventura County YMCA is seeking sponsors for its 12th Annual National Day of Prayer Breakfast. The event will take place May 5 at the Gilbert Sports Center at Cal Lutheran University in Thousand Oaks.  

   "Sponsors are critical to the breakfast because they help underwrite the costs," explains Rick Politte, President/CEO. "Because of their contributions, we can keep ticket prices low so that more of the community can attend."

   Last year, more than 450 people participated in the prayer breakfast. "The number of people attending the breakfast keeps growing each year. People of all faiths come together to pray for the nation and celebrate our many blessings," says Politte. "It's an uplifting, special morning."

   Keynote speaker is Bill Redell, head football coach at Oaks Christian High School. Redell will share how his personal faith has shaped his beliefs about humility, moral conduct, individual accountability and commitment to the community.  Spiritual and community leaders from Agoura Hills, Oak Park, Westlake Village, Thousand Oaks, Newbury Park and Moorpark will participate in the event.   

   Sponsorships are being sought from local congregations, businesses and individuals. Sponsorship levels are platinum, $1,000, gold, $500 and silver, $250. Sponsors receive publicity on promotional materials and tickets to the event. The Southeast Ventura County YMCA serves the Conejo Valley, Moorpark, Santa Rosa Valley and Simi Valley.

   The deadline for sponsorship is March 18. For more information on sponsorship, contact Lori Kent at the Southeast Ventura County YMCA, 805-497-3081,ext.103, lkent@sevymca.org.
