On behalf of the Montana Rural Health Initiative (organization hosting health fair and list
any other planning partners here, too), I would like to thank you for volunteering your time
and energy to the ___________________ (Name of Health Fair) that was held on ___________________
(date) in _____________ (city). The health fair was planned and implemented in response to
________________________ (reason for target audience, e.g., obesity epidemic, rising diabetes,
etc.), and we believe it was a great success, with over _______ (insert number) attendees.
This could not have been accomplished without volunteers like you working to make it all
happen.
(Example paragraph) Currently, the rate of overweight children is at an all‐time high in the
United States. During the last three decades, the number of children who have become
overweight has doubled; the increases occur across all ages, races, and gender groups. It is
well documented that overweight children become overweight adults, and overweight
individuals are at risk for numerous diseases.
Once again, thank you for your efforts and for your willingness to make a difference in the
lives of our children (target audience). Please be assured that you played an important part
in addressing the growing problem of overweight children.
We appreciate your support of the Montana RHI’s programs in ___________ County.
Sincerely,
Your name
Your organization
