Merkle worked with City of Hope to create copy that goes full circle, telling patient stories tied back to the life-saving research that helped the patients and, ultimately, crediting donor dollars for funding the research.
New elements
This approach to copy shines through in the annual-giving newsletter, HopeCONNECTION. City of Hope has sent out a quarterly magazine called City News to most of its donors since 1990. It’s a stunning, glossy publication, also revamped in 2005, with in-depth articles on City of Hope’s research work and other announcements. But it averages 30-some pages and has an in-depth, organizational focus. Keim wondered if its messaging was resonating with all donors.
