What is a special appeal? 
A special appeal is a targeted solicitation of philanthropic gifts to support an existing 91²Ö¿â Foundation fund. The appeal is not directly tied to one of 91²Ö¿â’s main annual giving campaigns, but it needs to have a strong case for support and a specified target audience with whom the message will resonate.
