Subject: Support student voices like mine
Dear {NAME},
As you might know, I've been actively involved in {ENTITY}, part of Texas Student Media at The University of Texas at Austin {this semester/this school year/since START DATE}. Through my role, I have had the opportunity to help keep the UT community connected through quality news and entertainment, while gaining invaluable, practical experience that I'll be able to apply in my professional and personal life beyond college.
Can I count on you to help continue this essential work at our award-winning student-run media entities?
Your charitable gift through Support Student Voices will help train future journalists, editors, radio producers, TV showrunners and leaders like me.
Donate and learn more now at www.supportstudentvoices.org.
Thank you for your support!
