<p class=MsoNormal>Hello OYANs-<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>As most of you are aware, the OYAN raffle is one of our
major sources of funding. Local businesses and organization donate the
prizes. In the past we have sold and drawn raffle tickets at the OLA
annual conference. Last year we allowed for people purchasing raffle
tickets online. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Many local businesses have indicated they only offer
donations to local libraries (K’lyn could not convince them that a
state-wide organization covers their local area). It was decided
last year that the best way to solicit donations was to have an OYAN member who
works at a library in close proximity to the desired business/organization
contact said business/organization. Thus, last year, donation request letters
were sent by many of your fellow OYAN members (perhaps you were one of them;
thank you if this was the case). We are going to do the same thing again
this year.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>We’ll will provide a basic template for the donation
request letter. If you choose to help out (or I strong arm you into it) a
brief, pleasant personal introduction could/should be included. I should
have the template available soon.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>If you participated in this endeavor last year and would
like to assist again with a particular organization (or several such
organizations) let me know. If you can think of a local organization that
you think we provide a nice prize for some lucky raffle-participant (and you or
someone you know would be willing to contact them), let me know and we’ll
add them to our master spreadsheet. I have included a spreadsheet of
businesses that were approached last year and some of the prizes that they donated.
With this you’ll have an idea of for what (or about how much) you should
ask.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>If you are reading this on the list serve digest and did not
get the spreadsheet attachment, please e-mail me personally and I will send the
attachment to you individually. <span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:
