Here’s a sample email draft for you to personalize and send to your friends to ask them to join you in supporting Doorways during Do More 24:

Dear friends,

Today, I’m participating in Do More 24 to #DoMore for Doorways for Women and Families. This local, community-based nonprofit creates pathways out of homelessness, domestic violence and sexual assault leading to safe, stable and empowered lives.

By donating to Doorways, you can have a true impact in the lives of women, men and children in crisis. For example, through Doorways, 93% of children with trauma receive counseling. $124 could provide an art-and play-based therapy session to help a child at Doorways heal and process trauma from the experience of domestic violence or homelessness.
