A bus pass for 20 newly arrived neighbors
Hi [First name],
Since you last gave, [Name] came to our Saturday welcome table with one bag and an appointment across town, and no way to get there. A bus pass closes that gap.
On Giving Tuesday, we're raising $1,000 so 20 newly arrived asylum seekers each get a welcome kit and a first-month bus pass. The kit has toiletries, bedding basics, and a phone card. It comes to $50 per person.
Would you start us off with an early gift? Early gifts build momentum before the day even begins.
