Hi [Your Contact’s Name],
I hope you don't mind me sharing something personal with you. Here it goes…
"I learned that even though you're still a kid or even 50, you can still make your own business, nothing is impossible when you put all your hard work into it. This program also made me more responsible, confident and more social with people."
That’s a quote from a PowerPlay Young Entrepreneurs student and it really stuck with me. Why? Because it’s true; it's not only about creating entrepreneurs. It's about a kid learning, at 9 or 10 years old, that they're capable of building something real. That's the kind of moment I want more young Canadians to have.
This October, I'm joining Run for PowerPlay 2026 in support of PowerPlay Young Entrepreneurs, a national charity that gives students in grades 4 to 8 the chance to plan and launch their own business, manage real money, and build the confidence that quote describes. I'm raising [insert your fundraising goal] to help make that happen for more young students across Canada.
Help me support this important mission!

I've also attached a Run for PowerPlay poster and an info sheet with more on the mission and impact of PowerPlay.
Thank you for believing in the power of youth and the next generation of leaders.
Warmly,
