National Geographic (a particular pity!)
Dear Mrs. Woodbridge,
Thank you for your pre-application expressing interest in a grant from the National Geographic Society's Expeditions Council. We appreciate the opportunity to review your request for support for your project, "First Everest Expedition." While we understand the importance of your efforts, regretfully, we must decline participation.
The constraints of our budget, current editorial requirements, and the timing of each project limit us to supporting only a select number of projects each year.
I regret that we are unable to extend support. I do, however, wish you every success and hope you will be able to secure the funding you need for your endeavor.
Sincerely,
Angelica Das
Program Officer
Expeditions Council
National Geographic Society

Jack Wolfskin
Hallo,
thanks a lot for your interest to JACK WOLFSKIN.
I discussed your project with our management. Although the idea of sponsoring this event is very interesting, it is due to a lack of budget that we have to focus on our main sponsoring activities for the rest of this business year.
Sorry for not having better news in this matter.
Best regards lots of success
JACK WOLFSKIN Service

Edelrid (Germany)
Dear Mrs. Woodbridge,
many thanks for your interest in being sponsored by EDELRID. I'm sorry to tell you that we can't sponsor you, as we only support German athlets.
Please contact our British distributor DB Outdoor Systems Ltd. who is in charge of the British sponsoring team. (I did, but they never answered!)
