What is Expense? What is Fundraising?


What is expense?  What is fundraiser?  Most of us want to engage in a worthy cause.  Either we want to physically aid or help in that cause or we want to donate monetary or tangible resources to that cause.  Most causes or donation efforts these days are extremely expensive and are out of reach for any one person to fund.  Yet, if your desire is sincere there are always ways to help.

A fundraiser is a way by which to raise monetary credit to continue in that cause and to make it's mission come to fruition.  What do you feel strongly about?  Fight cancer through a fundraising activity.  Advocate youth programs through awareness efforts.  Whatever the call there is power to be proactive.

Fundraising for the amateur can be intimidating especially if you don't consider yourself a "people" person.  Instead of waiting in the dark corner for the next guy to lead an effort learn to expand your horizons and potential.  Learn to gain a deep testimony of the importance of your cause.  Once you have that rooted in your soul you will then be able to extend that feeling to others.

All of us have life experience in which we become aware of ways we should improve the world around us.  Deaths in the family from various ailments can stir you to an emotional cause of action.  Being affected by drunk drivers can also lead people to want to help others.  Use the difficult times in your life as an opportunity to help the population at large who struggle with that same problem.
