Other groups to help support your fundraising

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone,

I will admit that I'm WAY behind on posts in here, but I did see a thread where

people were suggesting organizations that could help with your wak-a-thons.

Whoever suggested contacting your local Greek community had a really good idea.

I also want to add that in addition to the Greek community, college campuses

have lots of other organizations that deal with service to others. I would

specifically suggest that you check into whether or not your local campus has a

Volunteer Clearinghouse (it might be called something else, e.g. Volunteer

Center, etc.), but basically it's the place on campus that deals with all

volunteer projects in the local community. Not only could they get you in

touch with the right groups on campus, but many colleges also have a service

where you can register your project and leave contact information with them and

then people can get in touch with YOU about helping out with your project. It

might also be worth contacting the student government on that campus. I know

that our student government (here at CU) often sponsors/supports events in the

local community as a way to build bridges between the campus and town

populations. If there's anyone in Colorado who's doing the walk-a-thon and is

interested in getting assistance from some of the groups at CU, please email me

and I can get you in touch with the right people.

In other news, I'm taking the LSAT this Satruday, so keep your fingers crossed

for me!!!
