How should I begin a business letter asking for charity donations?

Well, those really helped didn’t they?

First of all, you have to begin with what the Organization does. People are not going to give just because you ask. Also, if it is not the kind of charity they are into, they won’t give.

Making people guilty is NOT the way to go. You have to make them BELIEVE your organization does, indeed, help whatever you are collecting for.

You must chose your words to inspire them to be give what they can afford and follow up with a Thank you for what they did give, even if it was a dollar or fifty cents.

Good Luck. I hope this helped a little,

    no. That is a bit forward, don’t you think? And the fact that you are asking should give you a clue.
