Thanks for sending out the post card about it. I would echo your advice to nonproifts to avoid jargon at all costs. Most nonprofits cannot afford focus groups or polling to test messages, but EVERYONE can get insider jargon out of their vocabulary. The bottom line -- if your 16 year old brother wouldn't understand what you said or your 96 year old grandmother wouldn't understand it, don't say it. Come up with something simple and plain.
