Short-Runway Year-End Campaign Kit

Hope Begins Again – A Complete Plug-and-Play Campaign for Busy Nonprofits

If you’re starting your year-end fundraising late, you’re not alone. Many small nonprofits and one-person development teams find themselves scrambling around mid-November, knowing that year-end giving matters but feeling unsure how to pull a full campaign together in time.

That’s exactly why I created the Short-Runway Year-End Campaign Kit: Hope Begins Again.

This kit gives you everything you need to launch a meaningful, donor-centered year-end campaign — even if you’re just getting started in late November. No guesswork, no reinventing the wheel, and no overwhelm. Just a clear story, ready-to-use messaging, and the tools to carry your supporters from now through December 31.

🌟 What’s Inside the Kit

This is a complete short-runway fundraising campaign built around your hero story and the message “Hope Begins Again.” Every piece is designed to connect emotionally, invite donor partnership, and help you raise what you need before the year ends.

You’ll get:

✔ Two Appeal Letters

• A full initial year-end appeal

• A short follow-up letter focused on progress
  Both are written in a warm, donor-centered style and are formatted with fill-in brackets for quick customization.

✔ Five Email Templates

A complete sequence that covers:

• Initial ask

• Condensed version for late November

• Giving Tuesday message

• Mid-December follow-up

• Final countdown before midnight

✔ Social Media Captions (Short-Runway Timeline Only)

Posts aligned with the campaign schedule and labeled with matching graphics so you can reuse designs you already created. Includes captions for:

• Launch

• Story introduction

• Giving Tuesday

• Progress updates

• Final countdown

• Optional New Year gratitude post

✔ Canva AI Prompts for Graphics and Done for You Ones

Short, simple prompts to generate matching visuals in minutes. All graphics are labeled A–H for easy coordination. There is also a Canva template with ready-made graphics.

✔ Donor Thank You + IRS Acknowledgement Letter

Send this for every gift. Warm, heartfelt, and includes all compliance language you need.

✔ Story Framework Worksheet

A simple fill-in guide that helps you lock in your hero, emotional focus, impact levels, and goal. Everything in the kit pulls from this.

✔ Clear Timeline & Organizer

A short-runway schedule that tells you exactly what to send, when to send it, and which graphic to use.

✔ Full Checklist for a Smooth Campaign

So you always know what’s drafted, customized, scheduled, and done.
