Look at the free software from FunderFinder, you may think it's a bit OTT, but their 'Apply Yourselves' template is great because it forces you to say what you want, who you want it for, why you want it etc.

I knew I'd forgotten something else that was in their template: what's in it for the company you are approaching!

Any donation, however small, would be much appreciated; the donors name and prize will, as usual, be displayed on our raffle board at the fete.

... which is well covered by Elsewhere's sample letter.

Our AGM isn't until Oct and I'm going to stand as Chair - ours Stepped doen a few months ago so we've been freewheeling since - not that the chair did much anyway.
Would it be wrong to say that I am chair even that we've not had AGM yet - it's almost a given, but you never know what can happen on the day...

You can say you are 'Acting Chair'.
