A ringing endorsement

Amazing what an endorsement from the right person can do for your non-profit. I was fortunate to receive such an endorsement just last week from Kay Granger, a Congresswoman for the 12th District of Texas in the U.S Congress. Representative Granger wrote a letter on behalf of our humble little group, encouraging others to give. OK, that might not impress you, but I am telling you it really helps open doors—I have seen it happen. Corporations that I have repeatedly tried to approach for support (with no success) suddenly become very interested when I attach this endorsement. I am not much of a political player, but I will take this one every time.
