Frustrated. Vent. Non Pampered Chef

[Becky0216]

I just am a bit bummed today. I am doing this March for Babies fundraiser on Sat. So people are not making there usual donations. I know thats good because that will be more in commission I will get and then can donate some of that.
My thing is, I always reach my goal. And this year I am so far away from it and know I will not touch it at all. The donations etc from the FR go to the chairmans goal and the team overall goal.
Just frustrated because this is something very important to me and it makes me feel like a failure. I am also very shocked only 2 people in my family donated this year. I had alot of people tell me they plan on donating, but never did. I even brought it up a few times. Its like pulling teeth.
I know this is non PC related, just had to vent a bit.

Sorry to hear that. I think the economy is taking a toll on all areas of life - including donating to fundraisers and worthy causes.

Hey there, I'm sorry to hear that you're feeling frustrated with your March for Babies fundraiser. It can be tough when people don't donate as much as you were hoping for, especially when it's for such an important cause. But please don't feel like a failure - you're still making a difference and every little bit counts. And who knows, maybe those people who said they would donate will still come through. Keep your head up and keep doing your best. You're doing a great thing and that's what matters. Best of luck with your fundraiser!
