Write a fundraising case for support that makes donors want to give. Use when asked to write a case for support, a fundraising case statement, a major-gift or campaign case, or the core argument for a donation appeal. Produces a persuasive case — the need, your solution and why you, the impact a gift makes, specific funding opportunities with amounts, and a clear ask — donor-centred, not org-centred.
What to give it
▸Mission & the need — the problem, who it affects, and why it's urgent (evidence/figures if available).
▸Your solution — what you do, the proof it works, and why your org is positioned to do it.
▸The goal — what you're raising for (a campaign, program, or general support) and the target.
▸Funding opportunities — specific things a gift funds, ideally at giving levels ($X funds Y).
▸Audience — who you're asking (major donors, foundations, the public) and your voice.
✅ The bar it holds itself to
Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.
✓Framing is donor-centred — the donor is the hero who solves a problem, not a wallet to "help us"
✓The need is specific and evidenced, with a human element — not abstract
✓"Why us" gives real credibility (track record/expertise), not just passion
✓Impact is concrete, ideally tied to giving levels ($X → Y)
✓There's genuine urgency — why now, and the cost of inaction
✓The ask is clear and confident; invented figures are marked for replacement
⚠️ What it refuses to do
Do not make it org-centred ("we need funds to keep going") — make it about the change the donor enables
Do not present invented statistics as real — mark placeholders
Do not stay abstract — vivid specifics and a human face move people, data alone doesn't
Do not bury the impact and ask under mission boilerplate
Do not skip "why us" — donors fund credible delivery, not just a good cause
