Short Letter to send to Friends and Family regarding the Global Giving Contest

1. Friends and Family, This summer, the Ohio State University chapter of Nourish International will be working with MOCHE, Inc. to build a potable water pipeline for the community of Cerro Blanco, Peru. The pipeline will take just $8,000 dollars to complete. If our chapter raises $4,000 dollars, MOCHE, Inc. has agreed to match it with the additional $4,000 necessary to complete the project. MOCHE, Inc. is a non-profit organization dedicated to improving the standard of living in impoverished communities in Peru. Students from our chapter, including myself, will be traveling to Cerro Blanco this summer to construct the pipeline with members of the community. The Global Giving Campaign, an online donation platform for non-profit organizations, has graciously agreed to administer a contest for all Nourish chapters across the country. The contest will be held from February 17th to March 9th and the Ohio State chapter has a very good chance of winning. The chapter who raises the most money toward their project during the given time period receives a $2,000 prize and the chapter with the most individual donations receives a $1,000 prize. As you can see, winning a prize in this contest could be instrumental in our success! With as little as ten dollars you can help us bring clean water to the people of Cerro Blanco this summer. If you have a moment, please take the time to check out our project page on the Global Giving website. We humbly ask that you consider making a donation to help us reach our goal.
