Sample Fundraising Letter: Donation Request for Troops

Do you want to do your part to help raise money to show appreciation for our troops and their families? Why not join forces with a local or national organisation dedicated to providing support services to military families?

Dear [Recipient's Name]:

 

Our military personnel make great sacrifices in order to protect our country and others who are less fortunate around the world. They work long hours and spend extended periods of time away from their families to fight for the freedoms that allow us to enjoy freedom and the way of life

to which we’ve grown accustomed.

 

Because I recognize the debt of gratitude we all owe to our troops, I’ve decided to get involved with [troop support organisation] to raise money to provide much needed support services for military personnel and their loved ones. Won’t you consider making a donation to show your support and appreciation?

 

Any amount you can share will be used to make life better for those who have dedicated their lives to protecting our freedoms. Please visit [website] to learn how you can make a difference, or return your donation in the enclosed envelope. Thank you in advance for your generous donation and recognition of the important contributions our troops make to society.

 

Sincerely,

[Troop Support Organisation] Supporter
