Reflective Post 8 : How to create an engaging and successful fundraising letter?



      First of all, to have an engaging and successful fundraising letter, start off by bearing in mind your audience and the particular plans set. List down things that will appeal to your audiences such as things that will surprise them, upset them or even intimidate them to feel that your fundraising letter is really important.

      Second, state and stress on the benefits of your cause clearly so that the audiences will be able to judge if the cause is sensitive enough to touch their hearts. Let the audiences know that with their helping hand, the cause will be known or also it will be able to improve life or other components. It is always good to remind your audiences that no matter how small of the amount they donate, they can help someone or the service needed. The benefits should state that when they help they will feel happy about it and not depressed instead.

      Lastly, add pictures or visuals of the organization or campaign in the fundraising letter so audiences can see how important it is. For example, if there was a campaign done before, put up visuals of that previous campaign to gain trustworthiness of the audiences.
