It's surprising how many times those deserving of special thanks are forgotten! Unfortunately, individuals sometimes stop doing good deeds because they never received a thank-you note for their generosity of time, money and support. Writing a thank-you note is an expression of one's personality, and each individual will express thoughts differently. There is not a right or wrong way to write a thank-you letter. There are a few guidelines to follow:
*Write the thank-you on nice stationary or note card
*There notes should be handwritten and should become an automatic reaction to the nice things people do for you.
*Always find out the person's name if you don't know when addressing the letter, as a last resort, use "Dear Sir".
*Tell the individual what you are thanking them for.
*Explain what their help or sponsorship meant to you.
*Make it a personal note so the person receiving it feels you are sincere about the thank you.
*Short and simple thank-you notes are very acceptable.
*Write a personal handwritten message. Never just sign a printed thank-you card. However, a blank thank-you note care with your handwritten message is very acceptable.
*If possible, deliver the card in person if it goes to a local person. They may enjoy seeing your project or mementos of your trip.
