Exclamation Need Advise

I am doing a fundraiser for my family. We are trying to get our car home under some diar circumstances. I created a website because I thought that was the best way to get the info out instead of having to repeat myself. I advertised it on Facebook Ads and posted it there and we put flyers up. I forwarded it by e-mail and asked that everyone please forward it to their contacts. We are desperate and although there appear to have been 170+ views we have only collected a few hundred dollars which is great but we are running out of time. I've advertised on free online papers etc and I've opened up e-bay auctions for things around the house to try and raise funds. We recently added (thanks to some people volunteering their services) a number of raffles, but no takers on tickets..

I need help, can someone with some experience take a lok and see what they suggest.

Thanks so much.

Default I can help

Sorry to hear about your situation. I think it would help if you were actually selling a product instead of just asking for money. I do candle fundraisers and you can make $6 per candle. They are Mia Bella Gourmet candles. I would love to set up something with you. I could even mail or email order forms to you. With all of those contacts people would surely buy from you. I can be reached at wmonica@cox.net. Good luck.

Smile Hi

So sorry to hear about that, I hope this will help you, I'm a member of a organization online and they help people when you need help, you have to also verify information so they know that you situation is real. In fact I know it is.



Try Home - Modest Needs® or Microgiving.com

They are like charities, they have donors and more and also here is another resource to help you raise money

ChipIn Fast & Easy and it also help Tracks donation so others know your goal and try to help as much as they can, I too have been through hard times and yes sometimes you do have to take it into your own hands to raise funds in this tough economy.


Let me know if this helps you.
