Community leaders,

I am writing to bring to your attention an extraordinary opportunity to be a part of creating a miracle, one that has immense potential to positively impact the lives of thousands of individuals in the state of Utah over the next three years.

We are thrilled to share that My Story Matters, a local 501c3, has successfully secured several grants that will serve as a catalyst for our efforts to provide valuable services to the community. These grants, totaling close to $3,000,000 will bring hope, healing, and real transformative solutions to thousands in need of support in our community.

As part of our commitment to transparency and accountability, we have planned an independent research project over the next three years. This project will meticulously follow the data, allowing us to measure and demonstrate the effectiveness of our initiatives in real-time. We are confident that the results of this research will not only validate the impact of our programs but also contribute valuable insights to the field.

We are currently navigating a unique challenge in securing the necessary funds for our projects. The secured grants we have in place operate as reimbursement grants with a 45-day return cycle. Unfortunately, this structure requires us to cover operational costs upfront. This limitation will impact the number of people we can reach with our initiatives. Our primary goal is to maximize the funds available to get tools into the hands of those who need them most.

Despite this financial challenge, we remain dedicated to the seamless execution of our projects. To bridge the gap and ensure the successful implementation of our initiatives, we urgently need to raise $300,000 in order to execute these reimbursement-based grants. Your support is crucial not only in kickstarting this incredible project but also in preserving as much of the funds as possible to directly impact the community. Your contribution will play a pivotal role in demonstrating a shared commitment to the well-being of the community we aim to serve.

By investing in My Story Matters, you are not just supporting a project; you are becoming a vital partner in our mission to create lasting, positive change in the lives of thousands of individuals in Utah. We firmly believe that with your support, we can turn this unique opportunity into a transformative reality.

Attached you will find summary information on the impact your donation will have on our initiatives. Your generosity will make a significant difference, and we are excited about the prospect of having you as a crucial ally in this endeavor. We look forward to the possibility of working together to make a lasting impact on our community.

Thank you for considering our request. We are eager to discuss this opportunity further and explore how your support can help us achieve our goals. Please do not hesitate to contact us at amy@mystorymatters.org or 801-477-7071 to arrange a meeting or to obtain any additional information.

Sincerely,
