Dear …

It is with sincere regret that we must inform you of our inability to provide __(Name of Non-profit Organization)__ with financial support at this time.

Our organization receives many donation requests every year and, though we believe that __(Name of Non-profit Organization)__ is a worthy organization, we have already committed the funds in our budget this year to other non-profit organizations in the community. We have found that there are many worthwhile organizations in our community that are in desperate need of funding. It is, therefore, important to us that we carefully select those projects each year that we will support.

There is no doubt that __(Name of Non-profit Organization)__ offers much to our community and we hope to be able to provide you with financial support in the future. In the meantime, please accept our best wishes for success with your fundraising efforts this year.

Sincerely,
