Individual Donor Letter
Project details
What we need
- A concise, well-articulated letter (not exceeding two pages) to request funds from individual donors
What we have in place
- We currently have key metrics on donors and donations over the last few years, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have a target goal, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $2,140 , allowing us to bring innovate programs and services to the vulnerable population we serve (seniors) during the current health crisis.
As a nonprofit organization fundraising is crucial to keeping our organization functioning; and the biggest ROI comes from donations we receive from individual donors. This is important in helping us achieve our mission as 82% of all money raised goes directly back into our programs and services. Increasing the amount we raise from donors means we can put more money into providing programs and services for individuals 50+ empowering them to live healthy and vibrant lives.

Testimonials
Joe was wonderful to work with, I knew during our interview that he was the right person for this project. He was a great communicator and helped deliver a fantastic donor letter for our organization.
Working with the Parkway Center was great! Sara and I communicated effortlessly and we had no problems putting the project together. Would enjoy the opportunity to work together again!
