Subject: A Moment for Giving
Hi Friend,
Today is Giving Tuesday, and I wanted to tell you about a cause that is near and dear to my heart. My [DAUGHTER, SISTER, AUNT, NIECE] is exceptional, not because of her disability, but because of her will to succeed — and Riverbrook Residence provides a uniquely caring and supportive environment that has allowed her to flourish.
At Riverbrook Residence, women with developmental disabilities are given the tools and support they need to lead full and happy lives. Riverbrook is a small organization with big heart, and they rely on donations to provide the quality of care that lets women like [WOMAN’S NAME] shine.
We’ve already had Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Today, please take a moment to make a Giving Tuesday donation to an organization that has done so much to enrich my [DAUGHTER, SISTER, AUNT, NIECE’S] life. You can make your donation safely and easily right here: https://donatenow.networkforgood.org/riverbrook
Gratefully,
[YOUR NAME]
