It could be for something as simple as relocation, but perhaps there are underlying issues that need to be addressed. | Sometimes it's a good idea to poll your members on their reason(s) for leaving.

FILES - Farewell Letter
FILES - Farewell Letter for New Members
Sometimes it's a good idea to poll your members on their reason(s) for leaving. It could be for something as simple as relocation, but perhaps there are underlying issues that need to be addressed.
Here are a few examples you can use for your files regarding Farewell Letters for your Freecycle members. Simply copy and paste... and feel free to edit as necessary!
Replace all XXX references with your local group name.
Example #1 - Farewell Letter - On-Site Groups
Dear Freecycle.org[R] Alumnus!
We certainly hate to see you leave our group. Is there something we can do to change your mind? If you could let us know the reason, we would love the opportunity to help!
If you were getting too much mail, we want to make sure you know that you have the option of changing the frequency you receive messages. If you would like to try one of those options, please rejoin My.Freecycle.org and make the appropriate changes to your settings. Go to the My Groups tab, click on the drop-down, and scroll to the frequency you would like. Remember to click on Change e-mail Preferences to save your changes.
If someone said something that did not agree with you, we would like to know about it. Perhaps there's a problem that needs to be resolved. Or maybe you just didn't have time? We all seem to be so busy these days!

Example #4 - Farewell Letter - Yahoo Groups
Dear Freecycle(TM) Alumnus,
We're sorry to see you leave. Thank you for having helped make The Freecycle Network(TM) the special thing that it is.
We always wonder why people choose to leave the group.
- Were you not sure what to give away?<br>
- Did you think you had nothing more to give?<br>
- Did you get frustrated?<br>
- Were there too many emails?
We would love to hear from you what reasons you have for leaving. If it is something that can be resolved to maintain your membership, we would be glad to have you back.
For example, too many emails can be resolved by changing to Daily Digest from Individual Emails!!! One email per day versus dozens!!
Please email us at XXX-owner@yahoogroups.com and let us know what prompted your leaving the group. If we can help you solve it, we will.
If not, your feedback is still valuable to us. Now that you have unsubscribed, please realize that it can take Yahoo Groups up to 3 days to process... our sincere apologies for the delay.
May all your journeys be safe ones!
