Copyediting

Project details

What we need
  • Review of up to 20 pages of copy for grammar, style, tone, and consistency
  • Advice on how to write effective copy going forward
Additional details

We need to send out our End of Year Letter before the end of November. We have a solid draft but would like a professional to look over it and help us craft the best letter possible.

What we have in place
  • We currently have A strong EOY letter draft, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have experienced writers on staff, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $1,792 , allowing us to put more funds into our annual toy drive and holiday food baskets.

The EOY letter is an important part of our fundraising push for December and can greatly impact our budget for the coming year.
