  Dear Environmental Sustainability Professional: 
                  What is your business, organization,
  or corporation doing to sustain our environment? Do consumers know about your
  products and or services? Are you looking for a way to market your latest
  innovations while also trying to remain stable in such a fragile economy? 
                  If so, we, the West Virginia
  Wesleyan College Students in Free Enterprise (SIFE) team would like to invite
  you to be a part of the "2009 West Virginia Go Green Convention".
  This event was established to promote the greening of America's businesses and
  community through demonstrations of environmental sustainability practices
  and by exhibiting innovative "green" products, thereby supporting
  the education and networking of both consumers and producers. This convention
  has been endorsed by the state of West Virginia
  because of its vital contribution in keeping West Virginia both, "Wild and
  Wonderful." 
                  Our SIFE team's commitment to
  environmental sustainability sparked the development of this convention. We
  believe that through your support and participation in this convention, we
  can teach and promote a cleaner, healthier, more prosperous lifestyle. 
                  This convention can be a great
  opportunity for your company to respond to the ongoing "green"
  movement happening in America.
  More and more, customers are choosing products that are environmentally
  friendly.  Our convention can benefit your organization by helping your business
  appeal to new customers face-to-face, while also developing networking
  relations. Furthermore, your organization can impact how consumers buy and
  think when making future purchases. This convention will also be a great
  opportunity for your business to gain some news media coverage through
  supporting the greening of America.
   
                  The convention will be held on
  February 21, 2009 from 12:00- 6:00PM in the West Virginia Wesleyan College
  Auxiliary Gym. We have enclosed a brochure and all needed application
  materials with this letter so that you may participate in our event. We ask
  that your organization please inform us of your decision to participate by
  February 9, 2009. You can also register online at www.wvgogreenconvention.com. If
  your company has any questions or comments about the coWenvention, or if you
  wish to speak with a director, please call Shawn McPherson at 1-304-669-8459
  or Samantha Phillips at 1-304-677-8914.   
  Looking forward to hearing from you,
