What People are saying:
"Once again, Santa Fe Donations did a wonderful thing for the Santa Fe Women’s Ensemble and we are so grateful. Not only are we grateful for the donations, but I’m sure our “winning bidders” will enjoy using their certificates at these fabulous and generous Santa Fe establishments. We hope that our supporters also become fervent supporters of the donor establishments.
We will of course separately thank the donors for their generosity, but I wanted to let you know how much we appreciate your help, and how fantastic we think it is that you coordinate donations for artistic and other non-for-profit groups in our community.
All best for the new year!"
"Words cannot express our gratitude for you and SantaFeDonations.com. Thank you so much for the service you provide to our community and to its nonprofit organizations. The cornucopia of gift certificates provided by your organization and participating merchants were a wonderful and most welcome addition to our raffle as part of our first annual fundraiser on October 24th, the Bad Taste Costume Ball.
Our guests were delighted both with the event, held at the Legal Tender in Lamy, and with our selection of prizes and gift certificates from highly desired local establishments. These donations from you and your merchants helped us to meet our fundraising goals, which will help us with our operating expenses in what has been a challenging economic year for us and for other small nonprofits throughout New Mexico.
We thank you again for the gift certificates, for your contribution to the Santa Fe community, and for your support of Museum Development Associates."
"Thank you again for the donation through Santa Fe Donations. We had a successful event and auctioned off all the certificates that you gave us. Thanks for helping us with our auction!"
" On behalf of everyone at St. Michael's High School, thank you and Santa Fe Donations for your help in securing auctions items for the 150th Birthday Bash. All of the items sold quickly and added to the net revenue of the auction. Having the turn-key service of Santa Fe Donations made the process of promoting and getting auction items hassle-free. What a brilliant idea for a business - congrats. St. Michael's High is sending acknowledgement letter directly to the donors."
"who wouldn't do this?"
"I just wanted to thank you again for facilitating the gift certificates for Theater Grottesco's "2nd Annual Jackalope Fundraiser!"
It is such wonderful work you do!The gift certificates were a hit at the party - guests were eager to participate in the raffle, and thrilled with their winnings. We're so grateful for the generosity and the ease of this program!
"Thank you for these wonderful gifts for our gala/benefit.Of course, I will send gift acknowledgments to the various businesses. On behalf of the Board and Auction Committee, we are deeply grateful to Santa Fe Donations for facilitating these wonderful gifts to benefit the children and families whom we serve."
I picked up the donations on Friday. They are fabulous! What a wonderful system you have established. From what I hear from donors, you are doing a superb job at connecting donors with charities! Thank you for your efforts. We are so grateful."
"Just wanted to let you know the gift certificates were a great HIT at the event. Thanks so much for helping make the event wonderful."
"I am writing on behalf of the Santa Fe Women’s Ensemble to thank you for your organization’s help in obtaining some wonderful restaurant gift certificates to include in our benefit party auction on December 6, 2008. We are of course writing the individual establishments to thank them, and provide tax documentation, but we also want to say a BIG thank you for all that you do for non-profit organizations in our community. We were the lucky recipients of gift certificates from The Pantry, El Farol, CG Higgins, Plaza Café, Las Mananitas at the Lodge and Pranzo Italian Grille. These donations raised just shy of $500 for us in our auction, and we are SO very grateful.
Thanks so very much, and all the best for a wonderful 2009!"
"Thanks, you provide a valuable service!"
"This service solves a huge problem for any “open door” business and that is, how to support numerous local charities in an economy that is fiscally challenging for local business-owners. No one wants to say “no”, but in the last few years the requests for donations have burgeoned in number. Santa Fe Donations represents an equitable, creative, win-win solution for both donor and recipient. "
"Thank you for the fabulous gift certificates you collected for our First Annual Women’s Health Services Tennis Tournament. I was amazed and very thankful when you dropped off the very attractive
envelopes with each gift certificate. We got a late start on our event planning and it was so wonderful to have the items from you and way before our event.
I will admit, that when you told me about this new program, I was a bit skeptical. I have been in the non-profit fundraising and event planning profession for 35 years and I am truly glad
to see new innovations and ideas that work.
Women’s Health Services wishes you and Santa Fe Donations continued success! I am going to send you our dates for our May 2009 events as soon
