Answer 1

Because you are begging?  Why should we donate?  And because in your post above you say that you can't walk/run in the relay without raising more money, which is not true.  You can register for $10 and be able to walk.  There is not a minimum with the Relay for Life.  

Send an email to all of your friends and family and ask them.  You'll get more of a response, than you will from us strangers.

Answer 2

I already support

Red Cross, Catholic Charities, Local Library, Toys for Tots, Local food pantry,USO, Salvation Army and a local women's group.  Honest I am tapped out.

Answer 3

people r a bit short of cash lately due to high interest rates the price of food and petrol and everyday expenses but ppl will donate u just have to keep asking and dont give up even when it seems too hard

Answer 4

I am also doing Relay for Life and am having a hard time collecting donations and I think its because of the economy, people need to take care of themselves first, no matter how noble the cause

Answer 5

Try to get your message out to more people. I know there's someone out there who would be willing to donate. You just have to try harder.

Answer 6

the country is in an economic crises right now. People can barely afford to get to work, let alone donate to charity.
