Subject:  Letter campaign?


So here is my deal.

I want to go to Italy to study this summer, and I need money.
Last summer, a student I know had a "letter campaign" and raised over
$5,000! She sent a letter describing the program, what she does at
school...then asked for a small donation, "if they so wished".She promised a
"thank you" concert in her hometown in return.
I showed this letter to my parents and both said "you should never do such a
thing! It looks like BEGGING!"
I say...you gotta do what ya gotta do!
Has anyone else done such a thing? How do you word things? I was considering
sending one to a few businesses......

Molly
