My name is Tonya Arthur and I am the Founder and President of Joshua’s Dreams Non Profit. Our Mission is to teach children and adults how to swim to avoid accidental drownings. The devastating loss of my 18 year old grandson on a familiar lake has made this mission my life work, my passion and advocacy.
As a leader in the Metro Detroit community you understand the pressing need to advocate for our children and families.
Every year, we lose far too many children, teens and adults in drowning accidents. The news is heartbreaking every time someone is lost due to this increasing epidemic.
Joshua’s Dreams has provided free swim lessons through funding provided by The Michigan NonProfit Association (MNA) and other donors and supporters through our fundraising efforts, but we need your help to continue our water safety efforts in Metro Detroit.
I am asking for your sponsorship of our Pre-Cinco De Mayo Fundraiser on May 4, 2025 at the North Rosedale Park Community House. A sponsorship of $1000 (one thousand dollars) is our Platinum sponsorship level which includes a table (8 tickets) and our next levels are:
Gold $750 (6 tickets)
Silver $500 (4 tickets)
Bronze $250 (2 tickets)
Platinum sponsors will be promoted in all mail and social media advertising for this fun-filled, water-safety campaign! We would be honored to have our Platinum sponsors listed on our program for the evening and include them as a guest speaker as well, at their request.
Gold Sponsors: signage on program and media
Silver Sponsors: Signage on program and tables
Bronze Sponsors: Signage on program
Thank you in advance for your generosity and support of our life-saving water safety campaign. If you wish to discuss our mission in detail, please don’t hesitate to give me a call, email or text. The contact information is below.
