Fundraising with a letter
Fundraising with a Letter:
Sample letter text:
HIV/AIDS is still a major problem in our community. In fact, New York State has the highest cumulative number of AIDS
cases in the entire country since the beginning of the epidemic.
To help fight this disease, I am participating in the 2012 Keeping Pace With AIDS event on June 3rd at Genesee Valley Park. Al lof the funds raised will benefit people living with or at risk for HIV/AIDS in the Rochester and Finger Lakes region through the work of AIDS Care.
Please consider supporting my efforts to fight this disease by making a donation. Donating is easy, you can:
• Visit the fundraising website I created at www.firstgiving.com/ACRochester
• Send a check payable to AIDS Care (please indicate my name on Memo line) and mail it to AIDS Care, 259 Monroe
Avenue, Rochester, NY 14607
• Visit www.acRochester.org to make a secure credit card donation online (please indicate my name in Comments box)
If your company offers a matching gifts program please include their form with your donation for twice the impact.
Thank you in advance for your support!
Your name
P.S. Please let me know if you’d like to participate in this fun and fulfilling cause! Together we can set the pace for positive living by supporting AIDS Care’s Keeping Pace With AIDS event!
