When you’re sitting down to write a fundraising plan, a case for support, or a fundraising letter, it can be helpful to have a template on hand to guide your efforts. Having a sample document to look at can help you learn how to structure your materials and lend inspiration for your work.
That’s why we’ve created some sample fundraising materials you can use as guides for your own fundraising efforts. You can download these materials (free of charge) using the links below.
Each of these sample fundraising materials is based on actual work our consultants have done for clients over the years. We’ve changed the names and identifying information (and are sharing the materials with each organization’s permission). Each of the download pages also contains detailed information on how to create the documents on your own, using the samples as a guide. Be sure to download all three. If you have any questions about any of the samples, please click here to send us an email, and we’ll be happy to help.
