Guest guest Posted October 17, 2004 Report Share Posted October 17, 2004 Congratulations to the wonderful folks who have done your walks thus far and raised money for Magic. I am a little envious of the ability of some of you to rally up support and walkers for " the cause " and truly have " the gift of the gab " . You are all special people. However, some of us are too nervous and shy to approach people face to face or by phone and ask for money - even though it is for an excellent cause. I just wanted to let such people know you can still raise money by writing a letter and mailing it to everyone in your address book and to local businesses etc.. If people want to donate, they will, and if they don't, they won't. Some people want an opportunity to give to charity but get caught up in other things. A personal plea will ofen result in a check! We havn't done our walk yet (last week in October) but by solely writing a letter and mailing copies of it out, I've had over $1,100 sent to me already. Not bad for someone too shy to verbally ask for money. Good luck everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
