Letter seeking Donations

To Whom It May Concern,

My name is Audrey Fontanilla and I am a film student at the Art Institute of California – Los Angeles, located in Santa Monica, CA. I am currently working toward my Bachelors Degree in Digital Filmmaking and Video Production. I am in pre-production for my thesis film that I will be directing on May 22-24, 2009 titled, “Longanesa”.

The film is about a young Filipino-American named Gunther, a college student, who goes to his favorite Filipino restaurant as a routine. But on one particular morning, a little boy who appears to have a staring problem interrupts Gunther’s breakfast, causing him to question his insecurities. In this story, we will be incorporating many essentials of the Filipino culture, including: Filipino dishes, religion, and most importantly the appreciation of family.

I write to you today seeking your help. We are in need of donations to make this amazing journey into a reality. With a budget of approximately $5,500, any and all donations will be gladly accepted and put us that much closer to our ultimate goal. Donations will earn you a special place in the credits of this festival bound film.

If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact me at any time. Thank you for your thoughtful consideration of our request.


Sincerely,
Audrey Fontanilla

Letter Seeking Substantial Contribution for Grassroots Project

A follow-up letter after a meeting mainly seeking contributions or donations for a community project.

---

Dear [Name]

Thank you for meeting with me last [date]. It was a pleasure to have finally met you.

Per our discussion, I have enclosed the list of requirements for our project. This is a very difficult letter for me to write, but many avenues seem to have been closed to me, so I hope you can take the time to consider our request.

Our project called [project name] is a pursuit geared towards promoting a cultural revival on a community legend, [insert name] and his works. It is indeed a great honor for me to be able to bring his work to the consciousness of a new generation.

This brings me to the reason for my letter. Although we have received some help from the local council and although I have worked hard to bring costs down by undertaking much of the project cost myself- it is not enough.

With this in mind, I would like to ask your organization for a substantial contribution. Any amount in kind or in check is welcomed. It would go such a long way towards completing [project name] and giving [name] the tribute he deserves.

Please consider this request with gratitude.

[Project Director]
