Dear Friend:

During this season of giving, many of us are uncomfortable buying meaningless gifts for our loved ones.  We yearn to show our affection by doing something meaningful.

We at the Pay It Forward Foundation have an idea that will help us and hopefully please you and your loved ones:  it is the concept of charitable gifting.  Instead of spending $25 or $50 on fruitcakes or Santa ties, why not make a contribution to the Pay It Forward Foundation on behalf of your loved one?

Your donation, would, of course, be tax deductible.  It would go towards fully funding our goal of 100,000 Pay It Forward bracelets, Mini-Grants, publicizing our mission and developing new initiatives to further our goals.

For your on-line or mailed in donation on behalf of your loved one, we will gift both you and them a Pay It Forward bracelet or bumper sticker.  A confirming e-mail will be sent to you and your loved one informing them of your generous gift.  Your names will also be posted on our website on the Donations’ page under Recent Donors.

Make your charitable gift now!  You can mail us a donation at:  The Pay It Forward Foundation, P.O. Box 977, Pismo Beach, CA 93448, or click on the “Donations” link.  Be sure to include your loved one’s address and email as well as your own.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for thinking of the Pay It Forward Foundation during this season of giving!

Sincerely,

The Pay It Forward Foundation
