Any ideas for a charity event for my friend?

Question

who just found out she has cancer and only may have a year to live... but she doesnt want everyone to know what going on with her because she doesnt want to have to talk about it with everyone..

Answer 1

i agree, i think you should just go with her idea because if she doesnt want to tell anybody about it then thats that and i'm pretty sure that other people are going to find out anyway. One charity event idea would probably raising money by doing a garage sale lol.

Answer 2

pending on what kind of cancer she was diagnosed with..you could put a spin on the "walk for the cure" kind of thing they do for breast cancer.  It gets people involved and gets them exercising...perfect for summer coming up, people love helping and getting some exercise for a good cause. You could get tshirts and water bottles designed....and the cost to walk in the event could be double the amount it costs to make the shirts and bottles, and then at least half or even all of proceeds could go towards the cause.... If she doesn't want her identity to be revealed you could do the event for an unnamed patient.....or even better, raise money for the hospital she will be involved with, that way her name isn't mentioned.....and people that help fund the hospital might be apt to donate as well.....

Answer 3

start a small bisness like mowing lawns or sum way to make money and try at it or make a charitable event and tell erbody NOT TO ASK SHE DONT WUNT IT and see her reaction

Answer 4

you are going to have to accept her wishes.  maybe at some point - to help with the bills - you could hold a benefit for her or a silent auction.

Answer 5

I'm so sorry to hear that, but remember, miracles happen and she might recover. Maybe you could have a bakesale or something like that? The hard part is not letting others know...hmm. Maybe you could just say that the bakesale is to help cancer patients, because technically it is - your friend. Usually people don't ask questions, and they'll just assume the money is going to the ACS and help with the event.

Answer 6

have a fun day and ask ppl around where you live to help out and have food and games and have ppl pay £1 for children and £2 adults lol  

you could also have a street party with music and dancing and food :0 that would be gd fun :)

hope ur friends ok :) have fun with her while it lasts
