Construct a refusal letter that maintains good relations with your client. Address it to Ms. Gayle Armstrong, 314 Landry Parkway, Dallas, TX 75057.

As a vice president of a real estate brokerage, you serve many clients, and they sometimes ask your company to contribute to their favorite charities. You recently received a letter from Gayle Armstrong asking for a substantial contribution to the National Court Appointed Special Advocate Association. On visits to your office, she has told you about its programs to recruit, train, and support volunteers in their work with abused children. She is active in your town as a CASA volunteer, helping neglected children find safe, permanent homes. Ms. Armstrong told you that children with CASA volunteers are more likely to be adopted and are less likely to reenter the child welfare system. You have a soft spot in your heart for children and especially for those who are mistreated. You sincerely want to support CASA and its good work. But times are tough, and you can't be as generous as you have been in the past. Ms. Armstrong wrote a special letter to you asking you to become a Key contributor, with a pledge of $1,000.
