Compress a budget proposal to a half-page ask

You have a full budget proposal and a finance committee that wants the ask, not the appendix. This compresses it to a half page: the ask in one sentence, why it matters, and the case in tight form. For anyone taking a spend request to an approver who decides fast and reads little.

I need to compress a detailed budget proposal into a concise half-page request for a finance committee or senior approver.

Budget proposal: {BUDGET_PROPOSAL}
Amount requested: {AMOUNT_REQUESTED}
Business case summary: {BUSINESS_CASE_SUMMARY}
Approver name or role: {APPROVER_ROLE}

Write a half-page budget request structured as:
1. The ask (one sentence: what, how much, when)
2. Why it matters (two sentences on business impact or risk of not funding)
3. What we get (three concrete outcomes or deliverables, bulleted)
4. Cost breakdown (max 4 line items, no granular detail)
5. Decision requested (one sentence asking for specific approval)

Stay under 250 words. Use numbers not words for all figures. No filler phrases such as "it is important to note".
