Ms. Schutz, 

The businesslike way to contact a non-for-profit to offer professional  
services is to go to that non-for-profit's website, actually read it and then send 
your materials to the non-for-profit's snail mail address attached to a cover 
letter. 

I understand that this is  a rough economy. Many of us, including myself are 
scrambling.   However, this listserve is an inappropriate place drum up your 
personal, for-profit business.

 Hello,
 Thanks to all who responded to my recent posting. My nonprofit direct 
mail/fundraising writing includes projects for Operation Smile International, The 
Winterthur Gardens, a local community college and the Pennsylvania Special 
Olympics. I am well versed in community gardens/community-supported 
agriculture/land trusts, as I've been a member of several. For nonprofits I offer the rate of 
$50 for a one to three page press release or direct mail fundraising letter. 
Newsletters depend on length. I would be happy to send writing samples on 
request. I am East Coast based yet fully wired and have worked remotely for many 
West Coast firms. References are available upon request.

 I will not post again about my services.  I'm eager to hear about the great 
work you all are doing.  Here in the Philadelphia we have some terrific 
community gardens and CSAs. I am interested in hearing about what's happening 
nationwide.

 Best,
 Jennifer >>
