Greetings!

On September 21 and 22, 2019, Midwest SOARRING Foundation will hold it’s 25th Annual Harvest Pow Wow in Naperville, Illinois. A Pow Wow is a cultural gathering and celebration open to everyone. At our Pow Wow, visitors can experience the Native American culture through drumming, dancing, arts and crafts, cultural demonstrations and native food. Highlights include a special veterans honoring with each Grand Entry, showcase of native artwork, award winning native flute playing, special exhibition dances, tipi displays, and an exhibit of rehabbed birds of prey including Deshka, the American Bald Eagle. Other activities include raffles, storytelling, games, crafts, and the opportunity to make an arrowhead!

Midwest SOARRING Foundation is a not-for-profit, 501(c)3 Native American Organization. We are seeking sponsors, thus we are asking for your support. Attached is our 2019 Sponsorship Packet highlighting a variety of ways you can help: sponsoring with a specific financial donation or through direct sponsorship opportunities. Each sponsorship comes with specific benefits. Donations are tax deductible to the full extent allowed by law. The Pow Wow’s average attendance is 6,000 people and includes guests not only from the local area, but from the greater Midwest and beyond. Our event is a great way to market your business and brand name.

Midwest SOARRING Foundation assists in repatriation, protection of sacred sites, environmental issues, and educating the public about Native American culture, important to our history and identity. We have shared our culture at the Annual Chicago Flower and Garden Show in 2000 where we won the top two awards, and at Brookfield Zoo’s Rhythm and Roots Festivals, the first event at the zoo to highlight Native American culture. We act as consultants to Brookfield Zoo and have helped with the Great Bear Wilderness exhibit. Our foundation provides cultural presentations to numerous scout groups, schools, park districts, and other organizations. During the holidays we provide propane, clothing, holiday gifts, and food to underprivileged families on various reservations.

Our office and cultural center is located in Lockport, Illinois, which provides a venue to share our rich culture through programs, lectures, teachings, and a garden of sacred plants used for ceremony. We invite you to visit our websites at www.midwestsoarring.org and www.harvestpowwow.com to learn more about our foundation.

We ask that all sponsors display posters and other Harvest Pow Wow promotional materials at their business location, as appropriate. We hope we can count on your support in 2019. Do not hesitate to call me at 708.257.4300.

Sincerely,Joseph Standing Bear Schranz
