Fundraising from the inside out
On this blog, I've briefly mentioned the Abundance League before. Last month, I had the pleasure of talking with them in person about the power of fundraising. was kind enough to write down a few summary notes. They included:- Fundraising is a great opportunity for transformation for both the fundraiser and those who want to realize their dreams by supporting a good cause.
- When you connect to a donor through their passions and help make their dreams come true, there's no need to be shy about asking for money or other help.
- Giving is good for your health. You enlarge your soul and better connect to others by increasing your generosity.
- Giving and getting are connected. Make room for receiving when you give.
- Learning how to give and receive are equally important to creating a culture of generosity. Reward those that give by accepting their gifts fully.
- To be an effective fundraiser, all the rules that apply to building personal relationships apply to donor relations.

There is only one giver, we are all custodians of the wealth given to us mostly by chance and circumstance. We came into this world with our fists closed and will leave with our hands open.
To give is a duty and a privilege; verily one who steals from the trust is a thief.If you give from your heart; not from guilt, peer pressure or for recognition, you will receive a reward many times over. Giving vision to the blind, hearing to the deaf, food to the hungry, education to the needy and smile to the depressed is giving from the heart. True giving is giving to your capacity; wealth unused will eventually be misused. hoarding wealth has never brought happiness.

Great Post with some really powerful information. I wanted to leave these ideas for your readers.
The dentists at Libertyville Dental Associates helped set up a team sports fundraiser with the Libertyville, Gurnee, and Grayslake communities of Illinois to provide mouth guards for local sports teams. The unique idea was to give back to the community a service that every athlete could benefit from. This allowed the young athletes to promote their sport to others in a productive and meaningful way, while raising funds to travel for competition. If you would like more information about setting up a mouthguard program and protecting athletes teeth from a dental emergency contact me at

I think this is one of the best work done by human being to help other human being. I wish if people all over the wealth think about it, there will be no unemployment and poverty.

Fundraising, for me is indeed powerful. Funds generated from successful fundraising events have benefited many charities and foundations whose main source of revenue is through donations and grants. It is also crucial to have a nonprofit fundraising software such as the Sage fundraising software as an effective management tool and system for gathering and storing vital information. Without the help of this application, it will be very difficult to monitor and record all the important details to each campaign.
Thanks for sharing the notes with us!
