Hey, by the way... I finally got ahold of Hailey at Duke today via email. She said they cant help us out ... BUT! (maybe I should quote her on this one)
"Unfortunately, I can’t secure any funds for a sponsorship of your event. However, if this is an event that requires volunteers and manual labor, your Duke contact might be able to secure a company grant for your organization. It is certainly worth looking into. Every Duke Energy employee has the opportunity to apply for grants for projects. The grant money is dependent on the project, which must have “sweat equity” – meaning there needs to be something physical the employee/s can do for the project too. Try reaching out to your Duke contact (you can even ask him to call me and I can advise him on how to apply for grants). Typically, the grants are for projects like serving people at a soup kitchen or building shelves, but I know they have gone to help support events as well, like the Special Olympics."

Are ya busy Saturday, October 29th? Do ya wanna help out Maybe earn some "sweat equity"? You're my only Duke contact!
