I hate that we won't be able to walk this year...just don't see it happening with a 2.5week old!!<br /><br />I also noticed a BIG drop in both participation and donations this year for the March of Dimes. Not sure if it is financial or if we have just "run our course" with MOD. I certainly hope not! <br /><br />Good luck getting a team together this year!Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02974441529675912770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-754213252368419884.post-44442026879393397732011-07-22T15:40:57.276-04:002011-07-22T15:40:57.276-04:00I've done a fair amount of fundraising and par...I've done a fair amount of fundraising and participant recruiting. The blog/Facebook/Twitter/mass email appeal reaches a lot of people quickly. However, I have had little success with those approaches. It's not that people don't want to participate or give money. It's just that we are all pretty much self-centered and lazy. It takes a little prod to get us to do anything and even more of one to get us to do something for someone else. The specific prod seems to be more effective in my experience. Think about a laser versus a flash light, both give off light, but one is more focused and stings more.<br /><br />I've put a reminder on my calendar to sign us up next Friday when I get paid. If I fail to, feel free to sting me with a laser.<br /><br />Good luck in recruiting more folks.Shannon Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14463580754549737450noreply@blogger.com
