Need Help With Wording a Fundraiser

In summary, when coming up with wording for a fundraiser, it is important to consider the purpose and target audience of the event. Use powerful and inspiring words, a call to action, and be creative. The wording should clearly state the cause, date, time, location, and any specific goals or instructions for getting involved. To make the wording stand out, use a unique design and visuals, and add a personal touch. Including special offers or incentives can also help motivate people to donate or attend. Pampered Chef offers resources and support for creating effective fundraiser wording, including assistance from trained consultants and templates and tips on their website.

I'm getting ready to launch a fundraiser for a colleague of mine that was just diagnosed with cancer. I want to donate a portion of my commission, but don't think I can afford to give it all. How can I say this without coming across as someone looking to make a buck off of this? I appreciate all suggestions.
 
What about not really addressing it at all? Maybe talk about raising money for your colleague, but not specifying any particulars? Just that this is a fundraiser to help X due to the diagnosis?
 
I tell people that I'll donate 10%, making their take either 20% or 25% depending on how hard they work it! They're usually really happy with that! I've never had anyone suggest that I shouldn't make any money - and infact, have had fundraiser chairs who have expressed concern that I was giving too much!

If there is concern, just explain that you have associated costs as well (gas, catalogs, order forms, etc) and while you would love to be able to give all of your commission, you're just not able to right now!
