[Lender] OETA- Oklahoma Cash for College Program Sponsorship

[Edington, Rick]

We continue to work with OASFAA to prepare for the "Oklahoma Cash for
College" program to be aired live on OETA January 17th at 8:00 PM.  The one
hour show, hosted by Gwin Faulconer-Lippert, will include a live phone bank
of 24 financial aid officers ready to take viewer calls, an introduction by
Chancellor Brisch and Regent Joe Mayer, and a variety of speakers including
six to eight of our own Oklahoma aid officers discussing financial aid
philosophy, common questions, misconceptions and the overall aid process.
Other planned participants include Robert Butkin (Office of State Finance)
speaking on behalf of the College Savings Plan, an IRS representative
speaking about tax credits, and Bryce Fair speaking about OHLAP and OTAG.
This promises to be an excellent, informative show and hopefully the start
of an annual event.  

In order to maximize viewership, OETA has suggested a statewide release of
promotional pieces to radio stations and newspapers.  This is expensive, and
we need your support.  In accordance with OETA guidelines, primary
sponsorship is available for up to 4 organizations and will include a spot
for promotion at the front of the program.  A secondary category called
contributors/friends is also available which will result in the inclusion of
your organization's name at the end of the show. Please contact Rick
Edington at (405) 234-4333 or Mary Mowdy at (405) 234-4310 as soon as
possible if your organization is interested in providing financial support
to sponsor this exciting event.  Thanks!
