Eight Sample Donation Thank-You Letters.

Learn how to say “thanks” in ways that win the
long-term friendship and loyalty of your donors.

The most important letter in direct mail fundraising never asks for a donation.

Thank-you letters increase donor loyalty, strengthen relationships and increase your chances of receiving more gifts in the future, including major gifts and legacy gifts.

But only if you get them right.

Direct mail fundraising is about relationships, not revenue. The only way to generate sustainable income through the mail is to thank donors promptly, personally, particularly and positively.

This Handbook, Eight Sample Donation Thank-You Letters, is the 21st Handbook in the Hands-On Fundraising Series published by Andrew Spencer Publishing. By precept and example it teaches you how to say “thanks” in ways that win the long-term friendship and loyalty of your donors.
