Resource Materials from Other Campaigns
When you’re starting a campaign, one of the smartest moves you can make is to learn from the successes of sailors who have organized campaigns before you. This includes every phase of the process, from sailing your boat fast to training regimens to fundraising.
In this section we have collected sample campaign materials from recent campaigners who have been successful in both the sailing and marketing areas. The resources here include fundraising letters, brochures, budgets, thank-you notes, resumes, blog entries – many of the pieces that you need to raise money and carry on an effective relationship with your supporters.
You are welcome to use any of these materials as you like (but please remove any personal or campaign details). Their purpose is to help you avoid “reinventing the wheel.” That way you’ll be able to use the time, energy and money you save to strengthen other areas of your campaign.
