I actually think this is okay if you set out the letter the right way. =
What gets dangerous is if the letter starts to have more information =
than "Here is your tuition and here is the amount you pledged several =
months ago" (e.g.: a 'No -No" would be.... "Won't you also consider =
making a gift the annual fund for the difference between your tuition =
and the actual cost?). It's hard for schools and the development people =
to ignore the urge to monkey with it. You would probably be better off =
with two different communications in the same envelope (one a tuition =
bill another an annual giving pledge reminder of the amount that they =
gave).
Cheers.

So far not a lot of response. I posted a similar query with similar =
results
on the FUNDSVCS@LISTSERV.FUNDSVCS.ORG. I do not mean to be repetitive =
so I
will get right to the point,
We are considering once a parent has made a pledge we would add it to =
our
tuition bills that go out to them monthly. Some parents ask if this is
something we would consider so they could pay tuition and pledge all at
once? Anyone else do this or considering it? Looking for success =
stories
and/or pitfalls to this approach.
Thanks for any input anyone can offer.

I have little to add but it would be helpful if we could keep this open.
This has been a regular topic of discussion for us. I look forward to
reading people's responses.

Subject: Payment Options for Annual Fund
Good afternoon:
I write to inquire how other small organizations may set-up automatic
payments for gifts and pledged out gifts?
I am also curious if any other schools use automatic debit/credit =
options
for Annual Fund payments and/or if anyone adds Annual Fund pledges to
tuition statements?
Thanks for your help,
