Sample Kickoff Letter

It is now time to let your employees know that the campaign is going to be kicking off! A sample letter like this can be used to get the word out to your co-workers about your campaign!

Dear Fellow Employee:

As a [YOUR COMPANY] employee, you are invited to participate in the Open Your Heart to the Hungry and Homeless Workplace Giving Campaign. Once again, we will hold a fund-raising drive for Open Your Heart during the campaign period from [DATES].

You will soon receive your “pledge packet” containing information about Open Your Heart and a pledge form that offers you the convenience of payroll deduction or the option of making a one-time gift. Remember that this is your once-a-year opportunity to designate your tax-deductible charitable contribution.

We will have our department kick-off event on [DATE], where you will have the chance to learn more about Open Your Heart. Mark your calendars…you won’t want to miss this!

In the meantime, please let me know if you have any questions. Otherwise, please return your pledge forms to me by [DATE].

Thank you for your support!

Regards,
