Individual Donor Letter
Project details
What we need
- A concise, well-articulated letter (not exceeding two pages) to request funds from individual donors
Additional details
In 2019, Curemonos will be celebrating its 10th anniversary in supporting medically underserved women affected by breast cancer. As a grassroots organization, this is a major milestone for Curemonos to have survived after so many years in a competitive environment. I need help in creating our donor/sponsorship letter to attract donors, sponsors and supporters to our 10th anniversary celebration/fundraising event.
What we have in place
- We currently have a lot of materials from past events, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have videos, patients' stories, program information, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $2,140 , allowing us to provide additional programs for breast cancer patients.
We will be celebrating Curemonos' 10th anniversary celebration in September. As part of our fundraising effort, we need to attract donors and sponsors to raise additional funds for the organization. We would like to have the sponsorship/donor letter as soon as possible to promote the event and to secure additional funding prior to September. In the past, we have been able to raise around 30% in funds from corporate/individual sponsors.

FOUNDER & PRESIDENT
Our mission
Curémonos mission is to provide education, support and advocacy to medically underserved women, primarily Latinas, affected by breast cancer.
What we do
Curémonos helps underserved Latinas through breast health education and personalized patient centered advocacy. We advocate with hospitals, physicians and community organizations to help patients and their families navigate the complex health system to obtain appropriate care in a timely, efficient and culturally accessible manner. By encouraging early diagnosis and treatment, patients obtain better health outcomes. Our services also benefit medical providers since patients overcome barriers to maintain and complete their treatment regimens as well as save hospitals, doctors, and taxpayers valuable time and money.
Testimonials
As a non-profit organization, Curémonos depends on volunteers to get a lot of the work done. Although volunteers provide a free source of work, you are dependent on the volunteer’s time and skill set Sometimes, it does not work out. I am extremely fortunate that Amy McCormick, editor of Lemon Press, decided to do our Donor Letter project. After talking to Amy, I knew that she was the perfect match for this project. She delivered a well-written donor letter and she was able to do it within the specified timeframe despite having a family emergency. It is a pleasure to work with Amy and I highly recommend her for your writing needs.
Collaborating with Curémonos was wonderful! Dora communicated with me very well about expectations, goals, and vision.
