Washington, DC
On behalf of the National Black Religious Summit, a program of the Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice (RCRC), I would like to invite you to join us in our efforts to make African American clergy, youth and youth-serving professionals aware of the important role your organization/foundation seeks to play in promoting reproductive health care and youth leadership development.
Please consider being a sponsor of this year's National Black Religious Summit 13 on Sexuality: "The Church in a Changing World." Your support will increase the impact the Summit has on helping the Black Church understand its role in reducing the rates of teen pregnancy, the prevalence of HIV/AIDS and other reproductive health issues that plague the African American community.
The Summit will be held July 8-10, 2009 on the campus of the historic Howard University School of Divinity, 1400 Shepherd Street, N.E., Washington, D.C.
