Explain in detail your document’s development from planning to finish, describing your
challenges, how you overcame them, and what you learned.
Planning
For the correspondence letter I wanted the subject to be about new program ideas that could help
reduce the environmental effects of global warming on both the arctic and Antarctica. For this I found
2 people, Anna Dalton Director of Grants and Funding for the Alaskan Conservation Foundation, and
Michael Barber Executive Director of the Alaskan Conservation Foundation (ACF). I figured that one
would be able to help me start a new campaign within the ACF and the other could help me setup a
sister foundation with a focus on Antarctica. When planning this, much like the white paper, I used a
prep doc for both the letter and email that helped remind me of the audience and style I was going
for. Additionally, the letterhead I created was done in InDesign as I had never used that program
before and wanted experience.
