<div>Dear Potential Donor,
</div>
<div>On behalf of the Executive and Membership of the Royal Canadian Legion Branch #118 in North Vancouver, I am writing to respectfully request your financial support with an urgent matter affecting our branch.
</div>
<div>For over 95 years, Branch #118 has served veterans, their families, and the North Vancouver community. Our Branch has been a place of Remembrance, camaraderie, and support, and we are proud of our demonstrated history of contributing to local initiatives, charitable causes, and other community programs. A summary of these contributions is enclosed for your review.
</div>
<div>We now face a serious challenge. Our Strata Corporation has imposed a mandatory special building levy totalling $345,594, payable in two instalments by September 1, 2026, and December 1, 2026. This levy is required for essential building envelope and parking slab repairs and is a legal obligation we must meet. Failure to do so puts our premises, and our ability to continue supporting Veterans and our community, in jeopardy.
</div>
<div>While our day-to-day operations are sustainable, we do not have the capital to absorb a one-time cost of this size. To meet this challenge without disrupting our services, we are reaching out to local businesses like yours for help.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We would be deeply grateful if you would consider making a financial contribution towards this levy. Donations of any size will directly help to:
</div>
<div>1. Preserve a long-standing community institution in North Vancouver
</div>
<div>2. Ensure continued support and services for Veterans and their families
</div>
<div>3. Sustain our contributions to local charities and community programs
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We would also welcome the opportunity to speak with you, provide further information, and explore any partnership or recognition opportunities that may be meaningful for your organization.
</div>
<div>Thank you for considering our request. Your support will make a tangible difference to the future of Branch #118 and the many people we serve.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Sincerely,
</div>
<div>Eva Hinchliffe, President
</div>
<div>For the Executive Committee
</div>
<div>Royal Canadian Legion Branch #118
</div>
<div>North Vancouver, BC
