Welcome!

Dear [firstname,fallback=friend],

Thanks for taking a few minutes to open and read this short e-bulletin from Brewer Direct.  These are interesting times for charities.  Increased competition and a tightening economy requires some creative fundraising.  The article below gives your four quick tips on raising money when times are tight.  Maybe it is time to do some data mining?   You may have gold buried right in your back yard (so-to-speak).  Conducting a donor audit can help you uncover untapped resources on your database.  Hope you enjoy the quick read..

Best Regards,
