Dear Neighbor,

How would you like to recycle, help the environment, save money, support a worthy cause and get a unique and practical product all with one small purchase?  

Our **group name** are raising funds for **name of project** by offering high quality, unique and durable cloth shopping bags.  You’ve seen the unbleached cotton ones; the nylon and hemp ones, some sold on Amazon.com and others sold in the grocery stores… maybe you already use them.  If you don’t, or if you’d like another one or two to use, here’s why we think you should give them a try:

	They’re already recycled – we made them out of clean used clothing, linens and fabric scraps – and you’ll keep recycling!
	They will reduce the usage of plastic and paper bags and also help you become more aware of packaging and waste
	Take them to certain stores and get a few cents rebate for each bag (find a list at www.rags-to-bags.com) 
	Your purchase is funding our project, which will in turn help **benefit or beneficiary of efforts**

You can place your order for a bag or two on the order form that is enclosed.  

Thank you,

**Group Representative**

PS If you don’t want any bags, but wish to donate, you can send a donation to us via PayPal at ** name@host.net **.  Any gift is vastly appreciated, and we thank you for your support!
