Church Groups Law Firms

 

Local businesses are far more likely than large corporations to make a contribution to your cause. The key is to make a link between the owner and you or someone close to you. You may want to approach the business with a letter first and then follow-up with a phone call. Service clubs such as Rotary and Kiwanis, fraternal organizations, and religious groups are excellent sources for fundraising. Utilize your connections!

Note: As always, if you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact us by visiting West Valley campus FAB N201G or calling Lucy Berchini at (602) 543-6091 or emailing IGLE@asu.edu. Best wishes in your fundraising experience!
