Prince George's County: Nonprofit Sample E-mail
|
To the Prince George's County Council:
Don’t balance the budget by cutting critical services on which people depend for the most basics in their lives. Times are tough, and the needs are growing. Without continued support in these fragile economic times, our neighbors most in need will experience even greater problems.
Residents depend on county-supported services and programs for help in times of trouble. Our community’s quality of life is as good as the county’s investment in it. By protecting critical human services, you are providing temporary housing for our neighbors, creating skilled workers for employment and making our children’s lives safer.
As you begin make critical decisions on the FY2013 budget, remember that it isn’t a numbers or dollars issue…it’s a human issue. By taking away money from temporary housing programs, you are putting more families on the street. By reducing funding in after-school opportunities, you are pushing our children into harm’s way.
Please consider each option on the table as you discuss how to handle the budget deficit. Instead of making tough choices, make smart ones. The best option is the one that meets the needs of your neighbors, families and friends.
Sincerely,
(INSERT NAME)
