The Founder’s Society of the North Shore-LIJ Health System Foundation wanted a direct appeal that invited current and potential donors to recommit to and hopefully increase their annual giving to the prestigious health system. Lazzaro Designs was asked to create an actual invitation that served to also outline a new list of membership benefit levels. We created an elegant invitation, along with all the collateral materials (response device, envelopes and cover letters), that prettily conveyed the key messages with clarity and grace.

Lazzaro Designs is pleased to add North Shore-LIJ Health System Foundation to our client roster. The Foundation is dedicated to helping donors, patients and leaders link their vision and philanthropic support with the system’s most worthy causes. We are collaboratively creating a number of marketing elements and materials for this client, including direct-mail pieces and e-blasts.
Flodin/Lazzaro knows how to not only craft a fundraising pitch using the right persuasive tone, but also how to build relationships and foster dialogue through ongoing development communication. A community of donors wants to feel a part of a bigger, important and ongoing effort of change and improvement, as well as be acknowledged for the generosity of their time and resources.
Shown here is the annual donor magazine for the Department of Psychiatry & Behaviorial Health at Mount Sinai-St. Luke’s Roosevelt. The publication is chockfull of updates on important programs enabled by the generosity of the department’s givers. It also features photo essays of recent donor events and notable news where money is being spent. The back page consists of the publication’s only direct appeal for help, though an envelope for convenient giving is tipped into the piece.
TIP: Whether it’s ongoing donor communications such as this, engaging blogs targeting this audience of givers, materials for fundraising events (invitations, programs, posters), or direct mail and email campaigns, Flodin/Lazzaro has the voice and vision to communicate cost-effectively—and beautifully—for our clients’ development needs.

“Having a graphic designer that was extremely detailed oriented and with a high level of creativity that provided high caliber work for Brookdale was imperative and Maryellen surpassed all those qualifications. It was always a pleasure working with her and the reassurance that all our work would be delivered in a timely manner was a huge plus. Maryellen coordinated all the printing and shipping of her material and it was a known fact, that no matter how small or large the project was, Maryellen would deliver the best.”
