As an under-employed Historic House museum
volunteer/intern/staffer, I would like to think
that you may actually hire one of us to help with
this conundrum, but I know you would rather pick
our brains. So here goes;
At the places I worked we thanked donors with vey
flattering articles in our NEWSLETTERS. Yes, thats
right, everybody likes to see their name in print
especially with photos, photos, photos.  The
newsletters also served as public relations
pieces, fundraisers, and visitor info pieces.
You could even produce it right from your desk,
maybe with some help from INTERNS and VOLUNTEERS?
