Dear Celebrity,
I am responsible for planning our organization’s largest fundraising event.
Every year we bring in a celebrity - this is what allows us to attract key donors and attendees.
We’d love to find a speaker who is relevant to our cause, but we are looking for more.
What can you do to help make our top donors feel special? Can you attend a small private party the night before? It will be in a nice home with a friendly crowd - you would not have to give a speech.
Of course, we would have you pose for photos with our top donors, our executive director, and staff. It is important that you eat at the table with them so you can schmooze right before your speech the following day.
We are spending a lot of money and all the celebrities are doing these things for other events in town.
Thank you for helping us further our cause.
Respectfully,
Development Director/ Event Orchestrator
