Yep, your Mama was right. Everytime she reminded you to say “thank you.” She knew what she was doing.
Everyone needs to be thanked. In the world of fundraising, it’s a critical action.
I remember in one fundraising job I had, the first thing we would do following an event was to write the thank-you letters. If I didn’t get started on them immediately, my Executive Director would aggravate me until I did. It was a great habit to develop and I used it throughout my career.
I ran across a resource today that I want to share with you. Lisa Sargent is a nonprofit copywriter and has a great website with some good resources on it. One thing she offers is some free thank-you letter samples. Check out her site at www.lisasargent.com.
