In an effort to create an exciting special event in conjunction with the Twin Cities Israel @ 60 Celebration, we are proud to announce The Peace Dove Project.  Recognizing the success and popularity of statue events around the world and especially the PEANUTS characters in St. Paul, the Israel @ 60 Committee will be creating a number of uniquely painted 5 foot Peace Dove Statues to be placed on display at Mall of America.  This will be an exciting promotion used to show our support for Israel.

We are inviting you to participate in this special opportunity by sponsoring a Peace Dove Statue! Don’t miss this unique chance to demonstrate your role as a community leader or business owner as well as to show your support for peace in Israel by participating in this high visibility project.

The Peace Dove Statues will be on display at Mall of America from May 16 – May 27.  It is estimated that 1,000,000 people will see these statues.  The statues will have your company name or personal name on them resulting in great exposure and community goodwill.  We will be aggressively targeting newspapers and newsrooms around the area featuring our sponsors and partners in our marketing materials and media efforts. Following the Mall of America display, sponsors can keep the Peace Dove Statues or donate them to a charity or organization of your choice.

Proceeds from the World Peace Dove Project will go to the Israel @ 60 Committee for use to help support the project.

Timing is critical so please respond as soon as possible. If you have any questions or need further information, please contact our Sponsorship Coordinator, Pat Kaplan at:  h) 651-454-8811; c) 612-759-2468; email: patkaplan1@aol.com.
