[Cash-and-caring] Please use this listserve!

Carl, I am attaching the Toolkit.  Normally, I would not send it on the
list, but I am doing so now because there may be others who don't have it or
have misplaced it.  

Please let me know to whom you delegate this job, including email and city
at least.  

Thank you.  

Ramona

Ramona,

We look to participate in this effort. However, given my load, I plan to
delegate this to someone else in the Affiliate as soon as possible.

Please send me the Toolkit so I can pass it along to them.

The group that met as the Cash and Caring Network this summer at the
convention said firmly that it wanted a listserve for communication.  I have
not done much with it because my computer was not working well.  But that is
behind me, I hope, so let's move ahead.  

Committee members, be prepared to help answer questions and work with new
people.   Thank you very much!  

We would like to have at least one member from each affiliate on this
network.  If several chapters in a state want to have participants, that is
fine.  

If anyone has not received the Toolkit, please let me know, and I will email
it to you.  It includes, among other things,  examples of severl fundraising
activities that have raised several thousand dollars with one event. It also
shows how to use state conventions to raise money, not just from our
members, but also from the public. Our conventions are usually well-run
events which impress people, and they should have a fundraising component. 

Chapters and state affiliates need money, but that money will not accomplish
much if we don't have more in the national treasury.  Therefore, we want to
raise enough that chapters can share with states and the national treasury.

What do we want on the list?  Questions, of course, are appropriate, and
answers are essential, but we don't need a lot of repetition in answers.  

Please share your successful fundraising experiences. Tell us what you did,
what made it good, and how much you raised.  

We want to help chapters and states increase the size and income of
fundraisers.  

Bob Sellers of Washington State  and Parmie Similton from Alabama are going
to help with this list. Thanks to both of you.  

So let's learn from each other.  I am looking forward to it!  

Ramona Walhof, Chair

Cash and Caring Committee
