    Hi [recipient's first name],


    This November is the Triton Family Challenge. As you and I know, the Eckerd College Tritons have a history of making a splash on and off the field! This is why I have decided to add my name to the roster for this challenge by making a gift to help Eckerd Athletics unlock $25,000. Participation from 300 donors unlocks this gift form an anonymous donor, meaning a gift from you and I of any size is what counts the most! I want to ensure that current and future Tritons have access to opportunities we had and more. I hope to see your name there! And remember, family on three!
