Dear (enter name if possible) Friends and Family,

I hope you are doing great! (Optional: enter brief personal greeting here). I've never liked sending form letters, but this is really important to me. Thanks for taking a minute to read this.

I am excited about an opportunity that I have to go on a mission trip to Costa Rica with Going The Distance Adventure Ministry (GTD). GTD is part of a multiyear multifaceted mission project highlighted by community & evangelistic outreaches and construction projects that will eventually include converting 94 acres of farmland into an orphanage, medical center, fish farm, distribution center, and GTD's Mission & Outdoor Adventure Base. This is a great endeavor and they need more workers to go.

The trip will be from (enter date range) and I'm hoping to join them. The trip costs (enter total amount) and I'm asking my friends and family to help me raise the funds needed to go. Will you consider partnering with me on this mission trip? Your financial donation and prayer support are the biggest ways you can partner with me. I have to raise (enter total amount) for the airfare, transportation, accommodations, food, and additional expenses required for international travel.

Because GTD is an official 501(c)(3) tax-exempt, non-profit organization your donation is tax deductible. And the great thing is that GTD does not retain any administration fees so 100% of your donation goes towards your intended purpose.

Thank you for considering to support me financially &/or prayerfully. They are both eternal investments! I look forward to letting you know how your investment impacted many people’s lives... including mine! I am profoundly thankful for your support. You can find out more about GTD by visiting www.goingthedistance.org.

Have a God-awesome day!
