Hi [first name],

Mercy Day of Giving, Mother McAuley's 24-hour giving day, is only X days away. We know that young women - especially Mighty Macs - will be the leaders and changemakers of tomorrow. But did you know that only 1.6% of Americans' charitable giving goes to help women and girls? They deserve better, and I need your help to make a difference!

Together we can provide the lifetime advantage of a McAuley education to young women for years to come. Visit mercydayofgiving.mothermcauley.org to support Mother McAuley!

Thank you!

Subject: Invest in Mighty Macs, Invest in the Future!

Hi [first_name],

TODAY is the day! Its Mercy Day of Giving, so the time to give is now. Please join me in supporting Mother McAuley.

I truly believe that an investment in McAuley is an investment in the future. Young women graduate from McAuley and move forward with conviction, confidence, compassion, and the courage to pursue their dreams. Just as the alumnae who came before them paved the way as presidents of major corporations, top-level engineers, award-winning lawyers, renown doctors, creative entrepreneurs, and so much more, current and future Mighty Macs hold the promise of a better and brighter future.

They are leaders. They are changemakers. A gift on Mercy Day of Giving shows them that they have a whole community behind them who believe in all they can accomplish. Make a gift at mercydayofgiving.mothermcauley.org.

If you’ve already donated, thank you so much for your support! I hope you’ll consider sharing your McAuley story with your friends and family on social media to get the word out about Mercy Day of Giving and the difference McAuley makes in our community and world! Be sure to use #MacsGiveBack!

Thank you!
