Dear [firstname lastname],

Welcome to the Improving City Banking Study! At the request of the U.S. Department of the Treasury, we are partnering with the University of Wisconsin to survey people who participated in the Parks Opportunity Program. We need your help to improve financial services for people like you. We are asking for your help now because you agreed to participate in our study about five months ago.

We hope you have time to answer our brief survey. As a way of saying thank you for your participation, we have enclosed a small token of appreciation.

The survey is voluntary. Your decision to participate has no effect on any services you have received or may receive in the future. The survey is also private. We will not use your name in the study. We will use your survey answers and information associated with the services you have received.

Please take a few minutes to complete the enclosed survey. We have provided a postage-paid, self-addressed envelope. Please contact Vicki Lein at (608) 263-3427 or [email protected] with any questions you may have.

Thanks so much for your thoughts and your time. Your opinions and experiences are very important to us.

Sincerely,

Cathie Mahon

Executive Director

Dear [firstname lastname],

Our records show that we have not yet received your completed survey.
I encourage you to fill out your survey and return it as soon as you can. We have enclosed a final copy of the survey, along with a stamped,
self-addressed envelope for your convenience. If you have already returned your completed questionnaire, please disregard this reminder—we thank you for your help.

This is a voluntary and private survey. Your decision to participate has
no effect on any services you have received or may receive in the future.
We will not use your name in the study. We will use your survey answers
