How to Write a Newsletter for Your Club
Friday, August 18th, 2006 
Club newsletters are an easy way to keep your members up-to-date on not only the latest club news but also upcoming events like fundraisers. There are many tips that you can utilize to make your club newsletter not only fun to read but also informative.
Include a section about your club’s latest accomplishments. Accomplishments can be anything from gaining several new memberships to announcing the results of your latest successful fundraiser. Make sure that you relate the accomplishment to the purpose of the organization. You want members to know that your club is making a difference.
Consider including a wish list. Few clubs are able to afford everything they need to accomplish all of their missions and objectives. Include information about where interested persons can send donations.
Include photos of members and from recent fundraiser and club activities. Readers want to see that their club is making a difference and getting things accomplished. Plus, including pictures of members helps readers to identify with the organization. You can also include a brief bio about members whose pictures you include in your newsletter.
Adding financial statistics to your newsletter is a good way to keep members in the know about club finances. Remember that you want to highlight the positive. Perhaps write a brief section about the revenue most of your fundraisers have generated this year.
