A SPECIAL THANK YOU TO OUR 2024-2025 DONORS
Dear Community Members,
The Phillip O. Berry Academy of Technology (POBA) Marching Band ispreparing for the upcoming season, and we are reaching out to you regarding corporate sponsorship opportunities and/or in-kind items like gift certificates for services or goods. The POBA Music Boosters Board is a nonprofit 501c3 organization (EIN: 88-3879640) providing scholastic music opportunities for Phillip O. Berry high school students. As a corporate sponsor, your contributions directly benefit students for items such as sheet music, uniforms, competition fees, transportation, and instrument repairs that the school district does not cover. POBA is proud to be an award-winning program in Charlotte Mecklenburg School District. Since 2003, the music program has grown immensely and proudly represents the school & community. Any donation is appreciated and because the program is non-profit, your contributions might be tax-deductible. Put your brand in front of 5,000+ local parents and community members! Please visit our website at www.POBAmusic.com for more details of how to become a corporate sponsor! With gratitude,
Walter J. Suggs
