Sample Letter 1
Dear (personalize if possible):
We are proud and happy to join other local citizens and firms in support of our community's United Way Campaign.
Your contribution to the United Way Campaign will help agencies to continue their important work in our community. These agencies work throughout the year providing services and programs to help people who are hungry, homeless, physically or mentally challenged and many others with varied circumstances who must at times depend on the generosity of others.
We ask you to join with our fellow workers and help keep the spirit of the United Way Campaign alive in our community. You can help make a difference in the lives of those in need.
Sincerely,
Chief Executive Officer / Union President
