“…[Pamela’s] outside perspective and writing have improved the effectiveness of our fundraising communications.”

Despite mass marketing and the convenience of email, the power of a genuinely sincere, well-written letter remains, and this is why an appeal letter continues to hold an effective role as a fundraising tool.
The challenge, of course, is to create a/an –
- Appeal package that is opened
- Letter that is read, and
- Message inspiring the reader to give.
Unfortunately, even for the best of us, creating an appeal letter is not easy and often takes a lot of hard-to-find quiet time.
To help with this important fundraising tool, I offer the following writing and communication services:
- Written copy for all components of your appeal package, i.e., letter, outside envelope, response card, inserts, lift note, and thank you letter with receipt.
- Consultations in developing funding strategies for the message, design of appeal package, donor renewal, donor acquisition, and tracking system for fundraising metrics.
For a low-cost way to increase the impact of your fundraising letters, consider using my rewriting services.
