Lutheran Disaster Response – Give where needed

HUNGER JAR - Each week we collect money in this jar to make a difference in the world through our Outreach efforts. All the funds that we collect from this jar go to help in specific ways throughout the world. These funds will be collected through the end of 2021 and are designated to go directly to the ELCA Disaster Response Fund. All money donated goes 100 percent to the disaster.

Your copy should address 3 key questions: Who am I writing for? (Audience) Why should they care? (Benefit) What do I want them to do here? (Call-to-Action)

Create a great offer by adding words like "free" "personalized" "complimentary" or "customized." A sense of urgency often helps readers take an action, so think about inserting phrases like "for a limited time only" or "only 7 remaining!"
