Happy Birthday to Ask Without Fear!

Posted on April 30, 2011November 30, 2019 by Roger Carr

Marc Pitman is a terrific resource of fundraising tips and resources. I have learned much from him over the past few years. His book, Ask Without Fear!, just turned 3-years old. It is a book I have read multiple times and purchased for myself and other fundraisers to learn from. Marc makes it clear in…

Personal Fundraising Is All About Relationships

Posted on April 23, 2011November 30, 2019 by Roger Carr

Blog posts, tweets, status messages and emails are all great ways to let others know about your fundraising efforts while online. But my experience is that these methods are typically responded to by those you have a personal relationship with. Those you have a connection with. Those you have built trust with. This year is…

Free Links and Chance to Win for the Next Two Weeks

Posted on April 17, 2011November 30, 2019 by Roger Carr

In just under two weeks, the Arthritis Walk will take place at the Kings Dominion Amusement Park. As chair of the event, I have spent my time preparing for the walk. Unfortunately, that hasn’t left much time for personal fundraising. I need your help. My goal for this charity walk is to personally raise $1,000…

Arthritis Research at Duke University

Posted on April 16, 2011November 30, 2019 by Roger Carr

The Arthritis Foundation provides funding for a number of arthritis-related research projects. I had the privilege of seeing several of those on-going projects that are happening at Duke University. I was able to meet many of the researchers behind these important projects and ask questions about their work. I am excited about what I experienced….

On Your Mark, Get Set, Raffle!

Posted on April 15, 2011November 30, 2019 by Roger Carr

I am passionate about fighting arthritis. I experience it’s devastating impact every day. No, I don’t feel the physical pain because I don’t have it. However, my wife suffers from multiple forms of arthritis and it constantly takes a severe toll physically, emotionally and mentally. I have supported the Arthritis Foundation for several years in…

Living a Life with Arthritis

Posted on April 13, 2011November 30, 2019 by Roger Carr

Arthritis doesn’t just touch the elderly. It reaches out and affects our youth as well. Rather than me telling you about juvenile arthritis, I want you to hear it directly from someone who lives it every day. There is no one better to discuss the impact of juvenile arthritis than my friend Margo Deihl. She…

How to Raise Funds for a Charity Walk

Posted on February 20, 2011November 30, 2019 by Roger Carr

One of my 2011 goals is to personally raise more than $1,000 in support of the Richmond Arthritis Walk. This money will be used by the Arthritis Foundation to help over 50 million people, including my wife, who suffer from arthritis. In preparation of my fundraising activities, I sent out a message asking for some…

Three Avacados

Posted on December 9, 2010November 30, 2019 by Scott Couchenour

Hey Everyday Givers, I want to alert you to a group of people who are making a difference in the lives of people in Uganda. They are called Three Avacados (known as @nonprofitcoffee on Twitter). Why am I highlighting them here? Because of the story behind their name. Check out this excerpt: "Our story begins…

Broken Down Car Blues

Posted on November 18, 2010November 30, 2019 by Roger Carr

Kim’s car broke down last week. After pulling off the road, she lifted the hood of the car and discovered the serpentine belt laying on the ground and a pulley shattered into a thousand pieces. Thoughts of showing up for her appointment on time were shattered. Unfortunately it happened when I was out of town…

Do You Celebrate a Birthday?

Posted on November 13, 2010November 30, 2019 by Roger Carr

Of course you do (even if you stay at the same age as each year passes). However, I was surprised when I found out there are kids who don’t know birthdays are celebrated each year. Why don’t they know? Because their families can’t afford a birthday present for them and so they don’t celebrate the…
