Maybe I should develop my own little one sheet proposal submissionn form. That would really leave them speechless.
I dare you. If it works, send me a copy!
I think I'm so particular about giving because of my time spent working at The United Way. I worked in the corporate accounts division so we handled all of the very customized giving campaigns for the large companies located in RTP. I became very critical of how money was allocated and what percentage went toward administrative expenses. A peek behind the scenes really does the trick, doesn't it?
The UW does an okay job in most areas, but eventually I became disenchanted with the organization, mostly due to the office I was working in. UWs are managed regionally, so my experience was not necessarily representative of the organization as a whole. These days, I enjoy supporting the UW campaign at the hospital where I volunteer by attending all the fun cook-outs and pancake breakfasts during the month of August. :)
