Question:
Do you believe the charitable fundraisers who call you on the phone at home?
They say they're raising money for needy children usually - in some area of need. Do you believe them and send them money?
Answers:
I don't advise it, they tend to share your number and you get called every day by a different person if you agree to give over the phone. I agreed where I work to donate to the make a wish thing from my company, they had this way they set it up where it was levels of donation or something to that nature. I picked one and though all was well until I started getting calls constantly using the same format, different charity. I don't know if my company's money went to good use or not, but now I just tell them no. I don't want to deal with that many people with their hand out! If its a kid running around having to sell ads for the school program and I can see the child and get a receipt then I'm more than willing to donate to help out, but I quit trusting over the phone folks!
