Sample Letter

Dear

I am writing to express concern about the lack of government support for Siblings Australia.

(Speak from your own experience (personal and/or professional) about the needs of siblings, the outcomes if support is not available and, if possible, the impact of Siblings Australia. Discuss how important it is to have an organisation that has a focus on siblings of people with special needs.)

I urge you to support this important organisation to continue its role in supporting an overlooked group of children and adults.

Yours sincerely,
