Dear [REDACTED]

God has blessed us with a wonderful Christmas gift and I had to share this fantastic news with you. Food For The Poor has been promised $400,000 from a group of generous benefactors. The gift is critical because we need over one million dollars to help 50 destitute orphanages. However, in order to receive this gift, we must meet three conditions:

1) We must raise an additional $400,000 from concerned friends like you to match this gift dollar for dollar.

2) The money has to be used to help abandoned children and orphans in the Caribbean and Latin America.

3) Most importantly, we must raise all the matching funds by December 31 or we will lose this remarkable opportunity.

This is a chance for you to double the value of your gift...and double the help you give to orphans and abandoned children this Christmas. Your gift will go twice as far to give the most helpless of God's poor children what they really need for Christmas - food, clothing and other essential items.

Your matching gift of $25 or $50 will show all of these abandoned orphans God's love and care through

over, please
