nonprofitsDonor Appeal Letter
Donor Appeal Letter skill for nonprofit fundraisers and development directors. Triggers on "donor appeal letter", "year-end appeal", "annual fund letter", "direct mail fundraising", "donor solicitation letter", "fundraising letter", "appeal copy". Produces a complete, deployment-ready donor appeal letter with donor psychology, hero's journey narrative, matching gift mechanics, and performance benchmarks.
nonprofitsDonor Thank You Sequence
Run a donor thank-you sequence that turns one-time gifts into repeat giving, which is the cheapest fundraising dollar you will ever make. Use this skill when a gift lands in your CRM and you want to move past the autoresponder receipt toward something that reads personal. Produces a four-touch sequence: a same-day transactional receipt with IRS-compliant language, a next-day personal thank-you from the executive director, a 14-day outcome update showing where the money went, and a 90-day soft renewal ask. Includes variants for first-time donors, recurring donors, and major gifts over $1,000. Works with Bloomerang, DonorPerfect, or Salesforce NPSP.
nonprofitsEmail Campaign Causes
Write an email campaign for a cause-driven nonprofit that raises real money without sounding like every Giving Tuesday email your subscribers have ever ignored. Use this skill when your development team has an upcoming appeal — year-end, matching challenge, emergency response, or awareness month — and needs copy that reads like a human wrote it. Produces a five-email sequence with subject lines and preheaders, a lead story anchored to one real beneficiary, a specific ask tied to outcomes (not just dollars), a P.S. block that matches Mailchimp or Constant Contact formatting, and a plain-text stewardship follow-up. Includes A/B subject-line variants and a mobile preview checklist.
nonprofitsFundraiser Event Invitation
Write the invite package for a gala, golf outing, run/walk, or house-party fundraiser that gets RSVPs from the right people and pulls sponsorship dollars before the event even happens. Use this skill when the event date is locked, the host committee is identified, and you need the copy across every touchpoint in one go. Produces a save-the-date email, a formal invitation with event details and dress code, a sponsor-tier one-pager, a ticket-sales landing page, and two reminder emails at T-14 and T-3 days. Includes a personal-ask variant for board-member outreach and a peer-to-peer fundraising template using Classy or GiveLively.
nonprofitsFundraising Campaign Copy
Draft the full copy package for a fundraising campaign — landing page, donor letters, social posts, and the thank-you email — without sounding like a direct-mail template from 1998. Use this skill when you are running a capital campaign, a matching-gift sprint, or a rapid-response appeal and need cohesive copy across every channel in one sitting. Produces a campaign page headline and hero paragraph, donation-tier descriptions, a major-donor letter, three social posts per platform, an event-insert handout, and a gratitude email for the day the goal lands. Tuned for Classy, GiveButter, and direct Stripe-based donation forms. Matches the honest, concrete voice that actually converts.
nonprofitsGrant Proposal Structure
Structure a grant proposal that survives first-round screening at a real foundation, not the LLM-generated pile program officers now throw out on sight. Use this skill when you have identified a funder, read the RFP twice, and need to draft a proposal that hits every required section without padding. Produces a narrative outline covering statement of need, program description, goals and measurable outcomes, evaluation plan, organizational capacity, sustainability, and budget narrative. Includes a logic-model draft, a letter of inquiry version for unsolicited approaches, and a pre-submission checklist calibrated to NIH, state agency, and private-foundation norms. Tuned for US 501(c)(3) applicants.
nonprofitsImpact Story Template
Turn one program outcome into a story donors, board members, and grant officers all remember the same way. Use this skill when your program team has a real beneficiary outcome — a graduate, a family housed, a river restored — and needs story copy that keeps the human voice without crossing into exploitation. Produces a 600-word long-form story, a 120-word annual-report version, a 50-word social caption, a pull-quote block, and a photo-release checklist. Includes a program-to-outcome logic model that ties the story to your theory of change so grant reviewers can trace cause and effect. Calibrated to nonprofit ethical storytelling standards.
nonprofitsMission Statement Workshop
Facilitate a mission-statement workshop that ends with a sentence your board will actually back, not a 60-word paragraph nobody can recite. Use this skill when the founding mission no longer fits the work, a merger is in motion, or your strategic plan needs a clear governing thought. Produces a three-hour workshop agenda, pre-read materials for board and staff, breakout-group prompts, a voting and prioritization rubric, and three to five candidate mission sentences with trade-off notes. Includes a vision-statement companion exercise and a post-workshop rollout plan covering website, annual report, and staff onboarding decks. Written for US 501(c)(3) boards of 7 to 25 members.
nonprofitsNonprofit Newsletter
Ship a monthly or quarterly nonprofit newsletter that supporters actually open instead of marking as spam alongside the other three they forgot they signed up for. Use this skill when your communications team needs a repeatable format that covers program progress, donor recognition, a call to action, and an upcoming event without being 1,200 words of self-congratulation. Produces a three-block newsletter with a lead story, a by-the-numbers update, and a single next-step ask, plus a from-the-executive-director foreword and a new-volunteer welcome box. Formatted for Mailchimp, Constant Contact, or your plain-HTML platform. Includes a subject-line bank tested against industry open-rate benchmarks.
nonprofitsSocial Media Nonprofits
Build a social-media plan for a nonprofit that respects the four hours a week your comms lead actually has, not the full-time strategy a $500/month agency pitched. Use this skill when you want a publishing rhythm that mixes mission stories, donor recognition, volunteer calls, and program behind-the-scenes content across Instagram, LinkedIn, and the platform-formerly-known-as-Twitter. Produces a 30-day content calendar with captions and hashtags, a reel and carousel script bank, a community-management playbook for responding to comments and DMs, and a quarterly measurement template tied to email signups rather than followers. Includes crisis-post templates for adverse moments.
nonprofitsVolunteer Recruitment
Recruit the volunteers your program actually needs — not the ones who sign up, ghost the first shift, and never come back. Use this skill when you are standing up a volunteer role (event support, direct service, skills-based pro bono, board) and need a recruitment pipeline that screens for real fit. Produces a role description with time commitment and required skills, a VolunteerMatch and Idealist posting, a social-media call variant for Instagram and LinkedIn, an intake screening form, and a welcome email that sets expectations before the first shift. Includes a 30-day retention check-in and a graceful off-boarding script for fit-mismatch cases.
