Letter to Public Official

A Successful Invitation for Councilwoman Staubach Gates to Attend a Charity Event

One of the most crucial elements to attaining support and recognition for the work of a nonprofit organization is their successful affiliation with public officials. The key to building and maintaining these relationships is effective communications.

Well-designed communications can help a nonprofit organization connect with these important figures, enabling them to better serve their communities.

In this first-contact letter, I highlighted the past and present work of the organization, gave important details about the upcoming event, as well as connected with the public official’s priorities and interests in serving her district. While public officials are very busy and it is difficult to secure their presence at charity events, well-designed communications can help a nonprofit organization connect with these important figure, enabling them to better serve their communities.
