Writing a speech quickly

Often fundraisers find themselves in situations where they have to think on their feet.

Writing a speech should include the following:-

Attention. Your first line should attract attention.
Relevance. Explain why what your organisation does is important.
Main message. Go through what your main message is.
Real Examples. Tell a couple of real stories which explain what your charity does.
Summarise. End with a one liner that brings together your speech
