Freelance Non-Profit Writer Expands Services to Washington State.

Portland, OR, March 03, 2009 --(PR.com)-- For many non-profits, annual report writing is a difficult and time-consuming chore. It’s detailed work and highly technical.

Help has arrived.

Rachel Karl, a Portland area freelance non-profit writer is now offering her services not only in the Portland area, but also in Washington State.

“Many non-profits wonder,” said Ms. Karl recently, “ ‘Why should we write an annual report if non-profits aren’t required to do so?’ ” She says the answer is simple: Your donors want to know what you’ve accomplished with their gift and why they should give again. Ms. Karl goes on to say, “By increasing donor confidence, you can increase your solicitation revenue as much as 50% or higher.”

Defining your accomplishments through an annual report gives your supporters the stories behind the numbers. It is the key to attracting new donors and convincing existing donors to continue their support. More importantly, donors have come to expect an annual report as a best practice followed by some of the largest non-profits in the country.
