Appreciate -  First, let them know you appreciate their gift of their graduation card.  That is the most important thing.  They took them out of their day to think of you, so let them know you appreciate it and do the same.

Helping – If this person has helped you along the way, thank them for all the help and encouragement.  We sometimes rely on the people around us to encourage us to do good things in life.  So, let them know you’re thankful for helping you along the way.

Assure them – Whether they gave you money or a gift, assure them that it will be put to good use.  This especially goes for money.  Let them know that it will help you tremendously even if it is something small.  They like to hear these things, and it makes them feel good about giving it to you.

Thank them – Lastly in your letter, thank them.  Let them know how wonderful they are, and how happy you are that they could attend your ceremony (if they did.)  Thank them for the card, any gifts or money, and let them know once again, that you appreciate it.

Writing out thank you cards can be a little difficult, so to make sure you cover everything you should, by considering the tips above.  Let the people that congratulated you know you appreciate it, and thank them for thinking of you!
