2, 2015 Natasha Dresner, JCamp180 Mentor [email protected] What is
case for support?
Is there any difference between case for giving and case for
support?
CASE FOR SUPPORT
The four components of a great Case for Giving Every week,100
people decide to abandon their dogs, leaving them without food,
shelter, and warmth.
Paint the picture of the situation you are trying to change (or
sustain)
That is why The Homeless Dog Foundations vision is to make every
dog a member of someones family. And we invite you to partner with
us in fulfilling that vision. 2. State your visionFor over 50 years
we have been the only organization to make sure these vulnerable
dogs are found and dont have to suffer. We care for them, nurse
them back to health and make sure loving families adopt them to
give them happy futures.
3. What you do, why you are experts and need to be fundedWith
your support we buy things and supplies necessary for those
dogs.
The safety and happiness of every one of our dogs is dependent
on one thing. Our donors. Without you there is no option for them
but trying to survive on the streets. You can make sure that
another dog finds a happy home today by donating $10 a month
through hdf.org. Together we can make sure that no dog goes unloved
and unprotected.
4. What you want your audience to do to make a difference
With the rent going up, and utility and other operational costs
increasing, we need your help more than ever before. So please
support us with your generous contributions.
