Dear [recipient's name]:

We are writing to you today to thank you for your donation of $25 to Bayside Animal Rescue. As you know, all of our efforts involved in helping animals and pets are made possible because of the donations of generous and caring people like you. Without your donations, there is little we would be able to do. Your donation will help with various efforts, such as supplies, equipment, education programs, and medical care.

Enclosed is a receipt that specifies that your donation is tax deductible, and you can use this for tax purposes. Thank you again for your generosity and kindness, and we look forward to partnering with you again in the near future to help animals and pets in our community.
