Need help writing a letter...

Help?
Some of you guys know that I am a member of an association called Writers Ink. We award the Daniil Pashkoff Prize for Creative Writing in English for Non-Native Speakers.
Unfortunately, handing out awards is expensive. We are looking for new sponsors, not local ones, but international sponsors. We already have a few adresses in mind, but we're having trouble writing a letter that hits the right note. Have any of you guys ever written such a letter - a successful one? Our first draft sound horribly awkward. It would help to have a good example...
It doesn't help that my English is getting rustier and rustier. *sigh*
Thanks in advance!
