Sample Networking Thank You Note Box 1354 Wesleyan Station Wesleyan University Middletown, CT 06459 October 5, 2005 Ms. Ann Center Director of Development ABC Environmental Agency 12  Smith Street Boston, MA 02538 Dear Ms. Center, I enjoyed talking with you on Friday, October 3, regarding my interest in working in a nonprofit organization.  I greatly appreciate your taking time out of your busy schedule to speak with me. Your reflections on your experiences in working in the field of sustainable development brought to life everything I have been reading about careers in the public interest.  It was also gratifying to learn that working in a nonprofit is one of the best ways to develop a broad range of skills that prepare one for any number of subsequent career paths.  I will certainly follow up with the two contacts you gave me, and I will keep you informed of my progress as my search proceeds.  Thank you again for so generously sharing your time with me.  Our conversation was both informative and encouraging. Sincerely,   Your Name   This is simply a model letter. Please remember to put similar thoughts in your own writing.
