Re: [OSM-talk] sponsor letter draft
Clive Taylor was the UK head of marketing, it was about a year ago. He wasn't very helpful though and probably won't remember me. This is the page I found http://www8.garmin.com/aboutGarmin/sponsorship/ Although I seem to remember reading about donating receivers for fund rasiers. 2008/9/25 Ian Dees [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Thu, Sep 25, 2008 at 9:50 AM, Gregory [EMAIL PROTECTED]wrote: I called Garmin to sponsor my sub-project of OSM ( http://www.livingwithdragons.com) and the U.K. marketing manager hadn't heard of OpenStreetMap.

Re: [OSM-talk] sponsor letter draft
Thanks. I used that page late last week to submit a request for donation. We'll see what happens.

[OSM-talk] sponsor letter draft
Hi All, Does anybody have a draft or boilerplate letter to introduce OSM to a company with the thought of getting moral, financial or other support for OSM? I'd like to send something to US and Canadian GPS retailers to get a discount for mappers and donation to OSM Foundation. Anybody else working on this as well? Any ideas for possibly sympathetic contacts? Best regards, Richard ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
