Running a marathon
Who r u?? Where are you?? Go to Members page and share some info
If I was training to run a marathon and wanted help raising funds, I would contact your local newspaper and try and have them run an article or story about yourself and the L and L Society.
Good luck

Re: Running a marathon and need help with fundraising
Hi Luckiest,
I'm sorry. I'm super new to this and not really sure what to do or how to work this site. I live in Katy, TX and my name is Sharmiesha Ervin. Thanks for your reply. I never thought to run an article in the local newspaper. I will definitely do that!
Thanks,
Miesha

Re: Running a marathon and need help with fundraising
One of things that you might try is getting some corporate sponsors to not only make donations, etc. but pay to have items made that can not only support the even, but recognize the sponsors as well. Everything from t-shirts to towels. Ou could them sell them prior to or even at the event. If you get any in print or on-air time in promoting your event, that item or items could be metioned as well as part of your fundraising efforts.
If I can help with something liike that, please let me know.
Good luck with your event!

Re: Running a marathon and need help with fundraising
Hi Miesha-
I read your blog page about your cause and training. Bravo to you for getting involved and wanting to help. I own my own small business called Scentsy, and often do fundraisers. Scents is a wickless candle company, www.rbbrown.scentsy.us. How this works is I send you a package with catalogs, order forms, and testers. Testers are some of the wax scents for people to be able to smell. You show friends, co-workers, and family members and they place orders for things they like. ALL of my commission is then donated back to Leukemia and Lymphoma Society! It is a great way to raise money and is fun at the same time. If you are interested or have questions please email me at brown.rebecca.21@gmail.com. Good luck and I hope to hear from you.

Ways to Make Your Search More Accurate
Most of the time, you just want to find content that has a particular phrase. Here are the easiest ways to find the content you want.
-
Enclose your search phrase in quotes. Search will try to find content with those words in the order you enclosed them. A search for "marketing advice" is going to return content with the phrase "marketing advice".
-
Search for content that has certain words, but not necessarily all of the words in order. This is the most basic search. Simply enter your search terms. For example: accept credit cards This will search for documents containing the words accept, credit, and cards
-
Using OR. The OR operator links two terms and finds a matching document if either of the terms exist in a document. To search for documents that contain either "web design" or just "online marketing" use the query: "web design" OR "online marketing"
- Using AND. The AND operator says that the search should return content in which all of the search terms are present. To search for documents that contain both "web design" and just "online marketing" use a search like this: "web design" AND "online marketing"
