      <title>Do you want to involve your children in your Fundraising Project?</title>
      <link>http://community.lls.org/thread/4131</link>
      <description>&lt;!-- [DocumentBodyStart:fbcbb665-006e-41e9-a076-f7bbdde9fa20] --&gt;&lt;div class='jive-rendered-content'&gt;&lt;p&gt;I explained my children about Leukemia and the Society, and about what I am doing to contribute to the Research for the cure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I asked them to talk to their friends about that and try to collect 1 dollar from each (they have a bunch of friends! I just started to to that, I will let you know if it worked!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I am also going to put a small box in a visible place in my house with the TNT logo; usually the weekends my house is really full of friends going back and forth. Spending the night, eating and drinking at my house, playing... I am happy with it. But from now on, as an idea of "conciousness and moral education" &lt;strong&gt;I will use the box as a weekend donation for shelter Haha!!!&lt;/strong&gt;    &lt;img height="16px" src="http://community.lls.org/images/emoticons/silly.gif" width="16px"/&gt;&lt;img height="16px" src="http://community.lls.org/images/emoticons/silly.gif" width="16px"/&gt; I really want to involve children on these issues, because I believe they are growing thinking they live in Disneyland. And the truth is nothing but the opposite for the rest of the world.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I hope you enjoy these ideas... good luck on your Fundraising   &lt;img height="16px" src="http://community.lls.org/images/emoticons/happy.gif" width="16px"/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="jive-quote"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.....

So, I made a deal with them and I said: I am not going to ask you for money for free, &lt;strong&gt;I will clean your entire house for $60, so I will work for your donation&lt;/strong&gt;. &lt;img height="16px" src="http://community.lls.org/images/emoticons/laugh.gif" width="16px"/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And guess what! it is working! Or some friends don't feel comfortable with the cleaning and the immediately made a small donation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you don't mind cleaning bathrooms, try it!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- [DocumentBodyEnd:9eef7a1b-59fd-4791-9d3b-5b4017b989b0] --&gt;</description>
