Dear FIRST NAME,<br />
The UCD Foundation Day Alumni Awards has grown to be<br />
the largest and most prestigious event in the university<br />
calendar and will take place again this year on Friday 11th<br />
November 2016 in O’Reilly Hall to an audience of over 400<br />
people. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you<br />
and COMPANY NAME HERE for supporting the event in the<br />
past.<br />
The President will host the Awards Ceremony honouring<br />
outstanding alumni who have achieved success at the highest<br />
level in their field nationally and internationally across a<br />
range of disciplines.<br />
We are approaching last year’s sponsors first, and asking<br />
them to partner with us again on this high profile event,<br />
celebrating UCD’s ongoing success. We would like to invite<br />
COMPANY NAME HERE to become one of the event sponsors<br />
by taking a table.<br />

We were delighted to be invited to become a sponsor<br />
for the Alumni Awards 2015.<br />
It was an engaging evening, thoroughly enjoyed by<br />
both invited guests and our work colleagues.<br />
The evening was also valuable as a networking event<br />
as we touched base with many of our clients who<br />
were part of the UCD Alumni. Codex has once again<br />
committed to sponsoring the 2016 awards and look<br />
forward to another enjoyable evening.
