How do I find people to donate? Will you?
Posted: June 30th, 2011 | Author: admin | Filed under: Camping | Tags: donate, find, People | 1 Comment »I work at a camp for disabled children with autism and downs syndrome and such. Our art supply budget was cut so we cant do art now. How do I find people who will help donate either supplies or money so I can go get supplies? I was told I am not allowed to mail out letters to companies and that it all has to be word of mouth. HELP! Can you help? Leave your email address if you can help and want more info.
You need to point people to a web site where they can read the name of this camp, check its nonprofit status, see what activities it undertakes and how many children it helps, the credentials of its staff, etc. People need to be able to see the official mailing address of the organization, the names of the board of directors, etc. Also, people may want to type the name of the nonprofit into Guidestar to make sure its legitimate. Without a web site with this BASIC information, you are going to have a very difficult time getting donations.
