A Giving Tuesday form that worked
The Aark Wildlife Rehabilitation And Education Center Inc's Giving Tuesday form, built free on Zeffy
- One real story: Poppi the red fox kit, revived and released at four months, shows donors what a gift can save.
- A named need: Name a real cost, like over $7,500 a year for milk, so orphaned animals stay fed.
- Gifts tied to impact: Tie a gift to a meal, as this form does: one opossum fed for two weeks.

What the new trees did for one creek bank
Hi [First name],
Last fall, our volunteers planted native saplings along the creek. A neighbor whose bank washed out every spring now watches those trees hold the soil in place.
You've been part of this land's story, so we wanted you to hear how it turned out.
On Giving Tuesday, we're raising $1,000 for our spring planting day: 40 native trees, each staked, guarded and mulched, at $25 per tree.
Would you give early, before the day itself? Early gifts get us moving and show others we're on our way.

40 native trees for the creek, and today's the day
Hi [First name],
It's Giving Tuesday, and today is the day we're asking for our spring planting day along the creek.
If you read our note last week, you know how last fall's trees now hold a neighbor's creek bank together. Our goal is $1,000 for 40 native trees. We're at [Total raised] so far.
Here's what a gift pays for:
- $25: one native tree, planted with a stake, guard and mulch
- $50: two native trees planted and protected on planting day
- $100: four native trees planted, staked and guarded along the creek
100% of your gift goes to the trees. We use Zeffy, a platform that's free for nonprofits.

Thank you. Together we raised [Total raised] from [Number of donors] donors, and [Outcome reached].
The neighbor whose creek bank used to wash out each spring will soon have even more roots holding it in place, when the new native saplings go in on planting day.
Our December appeal is coming soon. If you'd like to keep going before then, you can give here: [Year-end appeal link]. No pressure at all.
With thanks,

I lead [Org name], and our goal is $1,000 to plant 40 native trees along the creek and park edge, at $25 each. Last fall's plantings now keep a neighbor's creek bank from washing out, and I want more of that.
