Hello [Name],
I hope you’ve been well.
I thought your organization might be interested in [participating in some way specific to the organization] Unsprawling’s new Community Forum, built to better connect Calgary’s community of urban-focused organizations and activists to maximize our collective impact.
[Sender involvement]: I’ve been supporting Unsprawling since ______, interested due to my passions for _________.
Based in Calgary, Unsprawling is a grassroots collective working toward a more productive, sustainable, safe, and inclusive city. We create educational content and amplify opportunities to improve civic engagement in issues related to transportation, housing, and anything “urban.”
Forum Highlights include:
Confluence
- Crowdsourced knowledge and community hub
- Share research and find participants
- Recruit participants for programs/initiatives
Event Calendar
- Advertise your urban-focused events
- Sortable by organization and topic
- Feature option to add to google calendar
Groups
- When the forum builds a larger audience, Groups will be useful to create announcements and discussions pertinent to your organization.
- Organizational affiliations and contact information can also be added to your profile
As the forum has just been launched, we are working on building our audience. Your early engagement and suggestions for improvement would be greatly appreciated.
Please let me know if you have any questions. A member of the Unsprawling team (team@unsprawling.org) would be happy to meet with you if you’d like to explore this further.
[Closing]
