Dear Friends of Javelin USA,
I want to thank all of you for your support over the years. Since 1999, Javelin USA, with your help, has developed hundreds of young people around the country into successful men and women. We've had numerous scholarship winners, All-Americans, NCAA and U.S. Champions, and Olympians come through the Javelin USA ranks. Through our programs, clinics, fundraising and volunteer efforts we have provided a high quality, low cost way for athletes across the nation who are in need of specialized training and support. We have also helped elite athletes at the highest level achieve their goals. Through fundraising efforts, we have provided equipment, travel, and other training assistance to top U.S. athletes for the past three U.S. Olympic Trials and a dozen U.S.A.T.F. National Championships, as well as other top tier meets like the Florida Relays the Texas Relays, and the Penn Relays. We have also purchased javelins, medicine balls, javees, turbo javs, and other training devices for various schools who have had to face tough budget cuts and cannot afford these very expensive items. That's where you come in. We need your support more than ever. We know budgets are tight in every household. But we're not asking for much. $5, $10, and $20 donations can go a long way. If you can afford more, we'd be appreciative and it could help us in a huge way. The lowest end javelin cost $130! One javee costs just under $40! A javelin ball is $20! It's very expensive for young people to train and our elite athletes are not supported financially like many other countries. So I am asking for your help. As we reach the end of 2011 and look toward the Olympics in London in 2012, please think of Javelin USA, a 501(C)3 non-profit organization, in your charity plans. All donations are fully tax-deductible. Checks can be made payable to Javelin USA, c/o Joseph Maccolini, Secretary/Treasurer, 347 Hancock Ave., Norristown, PA 19401. Thank you again for all of your support.
Sincerely,
John Taylor, President
Javelin USA
