John,

This is important – I hope you’ll take a moment to respond right away.

I’m reaching out because we can’t afford to fall short. There is too much on the line, and we don’t want to be forced to scale back our plans as we head toward fall.

You can see the update that our finance team sent me this morning below.

We’re falling behind pace to reach our August grassroots fundraising goal, but we’re not all that far off. With top supporters like you stepping up to help today, I know we can make up the difference.

We need to raise $822 to get back on track...

If everyone reading this email pitches in just $3, we’ll get there!

Thank you in advance for any contribution you can send today.

Subject: Updated August Reporting

This is a quick follow-up on my note yesterday. We just had a chance to review our updated August reporting from the finance team.

We planned for this month to be a bit slower, but we’re still lagging behind pace toward the grassroots goal we set a few weeks back. We need to raise $822 over the next 48 hours to get back on track.

Will you reach out personally today to our top Team Katko online supporters?

You can let them know that if everyone who hasn’t pitched in this month donates just $3, we’ll erase this shortfall and can keep moving forward to hit our August grassroots goal.

Let me know if you have any questions on the numbers. I can give you a call later today to touch base.
