The London Community Gospel Choir in conjunction with The Nelson Mandela Children's Fund is planning a UK tour leading up to Nelson Mandela's 90th birthday celebrations on the 27th June, 2008.

The tour will raise awareness of the charity through workshops for children and an evening concert. The concert will include guest artists of national recognition, with local celebrities being invited to the event.

The organisers are looking for sponsors, who will receive national exposure of their company or brand. The choir will be touring from the 6th June until the 25th June, 2008, inclusive of thirteen concerts at venues each having a capacity of around 2,000 or more. Some venues are much bigger, holding up to 10,000 - which the organisers intend to fill.

There are different sponsorship packages to chose from: Platinum, Gold and Silver - each of which ensures maximum exposure of the client's brand. The choir will be playing to around 30,000 people and around 1,500 children through the workshops. This promises to be a very high profile event.

Packages can be custom made for sponsors' needs and budget; otherwise they start at around £20,000.
