There are probably a million
templates I could be looking at for guidance on fundraising but instead,
I have decided
that I’m going to just speak from the heart. Today, I am asking you to
donate to Politics Reborn so our organization can continue fighting the
good fight.
I must admit that I am reluctant to ask for donations. It is not just
because I feel uncomfortable asking others for money, but I’m scared
that when I solicit donations from my family and friends, they’ll say no
to me. I view reluctance as a personal failure on my part. Donations to
causes or organizations are often so mundane that we do not view them
in the sacred way I do.
I believe a donation is one of the most inspiring gestures one
can often make.
It is an action that signals that you believe in an organization, that
you believe in the people like myself who are leading it. It indicates
to me that you have come to know my work ethic, my character, my
capabilities and my compassion, so much so, that you are willing to make
a
financial sacrifice, however small that may be, because you believe
that the people behind Politics Reborn have done good work to improve
the lives of the many and will continue such work.
It is because you believe in both, the messengers of this
organization, and the messages and strategies we are conveying which are
supported by empirical data. It is my mission to get as many people
as I know personally to display their faith in this organization through
some kind of donation.
There are so many people suffering
and we need your help. Your donation will allow us to hire community
organizers, support block associations and recruit more ordinary people
to run for
local party committee seats. Your donation will help
us expand our consciousness-raising art projects and strengthen
innovative projects we are working on like "Find Me A Canvasser."
Politics Reborn is the revolution you've been waiting for.
