Dear {name}, 

Trevecca Nazarene University is a special place to me. {insert personal story about what Trevecca means to you.} Even though my college degree is from somewhere else, I love Trevecca, its mission and its work as if it were my alma mater. 

Because I know your passion for {insert passion, i.e.: worthwhile endeavors and institutions/higher education/Christian universities/scholarships and programs for missions-oriented students, etc.}, I want to invite you to join me in supporting the University for the difference it makes in the lives of students, as well as the ways it seeks to enrich our city and our world. 

Mark your calendar for March 15—Trevecca’s second annual Giving Day. The University’s goal is to have 1,500 donors contribute $1.5 million in one day. 

Will you be one of them? 

 

Live Out Your Christian Faith 

When you support Trevecca on Giving Day, you invest in the work of the University and help create more opportunities for students. Most importantly, you live out your Christian faith as you support Trevecca in its mission to equip students for leadership and service.

You’ll even be able to give specifically to a program, scholarship or designated need at the University. Options range from supporting business, science and education students to making improvements across campus, sending students on short-term missions projects, providing upkeep for production at the Trevecca Urban Farm and more.

{insert personal Trevecca story here; what you plan to give to; suggest a specific donation because of a personal experience, etc.}

Trevecca is all about community, and this Giving Day celebrates the special community that sets us apart. That community includes you, too. As a {friend/family member/colleague} of mine, you play a unique role in this effort. 

Put March 15 on your calendar and make plans to donate to Trevecca then. {insert info about the day of events, such as: And if you’re in town/close by, I’d love to see you on campus that day; It’s going to be an exciting day on campus, and I’d love to meet you there, etc.}

Thanks for your consideration in partnering with me for Giving Day to support Trevecca.  

Best regards,
