Hi:
I am writing a fundraising letter for my homework, and today I ask my teacher to take a look with my letter, but she said that she would probably start the letter with this:
========================================
For those of you who are not familiar with our organization, Buckeye Bread Basket is a non-profit organization, which serves the community for many years. This year, the organization helps raising money for the annual Thanksgiving Day dinner, and more than 400 needy people, both single people and families, are expected to attend the dinner.
========================================

The assignment is start writing a fundraising letter by sellling a tax deductible gift card.

Can anybody give me any suggestion on how I start my fundraising letter?

Hi everyone,

I need effective and easy fundraising ideas for a horse rescue in Maryland where I am a volunteer. We have a volunteer shortage and are extremely low on funds, to the point where we may eventually need to close a farm if things continue this way. We care for around 100 horses at our two farms, and around 50 fosters, as well as some donkeys, mules, and ponies.

I need some ideas for fundraising that will not take a great deal of manpower - ideas for marketing and public awareness activities are also welcome.

By the way, more info about the rescue can be found at www.horsenethorserescue.org - if you are able to volunteer or provide online donations, especially at this difficult time, please check the site for more info. We would appreciate it!

Thanks for the ideas and assistance.

My dance company is trying to go to Disney World next spring to perform there.. however, my high school is not the richest school so we really want to fundraise to raise money to help lower the cost of the trip. My school has this new stupid rule that you can only do 5 fundraisers per group/sport or whatever. So, whatever fundraising we do must be realllyyy good since we have such a limited amount. I really would like some help thinking of ways to get alot of money.

I’m considering a degree in Nonprofit management with a fundraising certificate. I’ve always been fascinated with the concept of working in a non-profit, however, I don’t really know what the day-to-day work load will be. Is it mostly a desk job or is it more of working with people? Is fundraising a hard job or can it be fun? Any info would help!
