Dear Mr. Donor - I hope all is well and that you’re enjoying these early spring days! My name is Chad Barger and I am the Development Director of the ABC Charity. I am writing to see if I could stop by sometime in the next month or so to provide a brief update on ABC Charity and our upcoming event. It’s an opportunity for me to share our progress, to answer your questions and to get some feedback which is always appreciated. I think 20 minutes would be sufficient – is there a good day on your calendar? What about the 20th at 2pm or the 22nd between 1 and 4pm? Thank you for taking the time to read this request and have a wonderful day. Sincerely, Chad

build excitement

  • Don’t discount
