- What do you think about the "Global Warming" and what it is going to have on the "Less Fortunate"?
- The growing threat from global warming means we are jeopardizing our stewardship responsibility toward God's bounty. Scripture compels us to care for all God's creation, including our air, water, plants and animals, and, yes, our planet's climate.
We are called to care for those less fortunate, and the poorest people in the world are already being affected by global warming and the pollution caused by our current energy choices. Air pollution exacerbates asthma, which is disproportionately found in poor children. Mercury poisoning from coal-fired power plants hurts the unborn, and global warming's effects on crops and livestock are first felt in Third World economies that lack the resources to protect their people impacted by climate change.
Jesus taught us to love our neighbors as ourselves. For our neighbors, and for ourselves, we must make better use of available energy technologies.
- What do you think you can do to help other entrepreneurs and friend's on this site do to raise money to help these "unfortunate people"?
- There are all kinds of fundraising activities you can organize to boost your fundraising profits and make your next fundraising campaign more exciting for your supporters and group members! Here are a few ideas for fundraising activities that will help you raise more and have fun:
Fundraising Raffle
A raffle is a great fundraising activity! To give yours a twist, sell lollipops with numbers printed on the sticks instead of standard raffle tickets. The sticks themselves can be difficult to write on, so use sticky file labels folded around the sticks to make tags. It would be a good idea to have lots of volunteers and participants to print the numbers. Assign people numbers 1-99, 100-199, etc, or smaller amounts for young children. The person with the winning stick in this fundraising activity gets the prize!
Tip: If you don’t have the money to purchase a prize, ask a local business to donate an item or a gift certificate to raffle off. You’ll be surprised how willing people are to help with fund raising activities. You can even have group members bring baked goods to raffle off!
Concession Stand Car Wash
Car washes have long been a favorite for fundraising activities, but you can get a leg up on the competition by selling snacks and refreshments at your car wash! Set up a few folding chairs, and your customers can relax and enjoy the day while their car is being cleaned! Some great refreshments to sell are drinks like soda, water, juice and coffee, and snacks like candy bars, lollipops, and beef snacks.
Cookie Party
Fundraising activities can also be used as motivational treats for your group members. For your next cookie dough fundraiser, set a fundraising goal for your group members and host a special cookie party when the goal is reached! Purchase some delicious cookie dough for your party, or ask a member of the community to sponsor your group by purchasing the prize cookie dough. When your goal is reached, have group members over to help bake and eat delicious cookies! This fundraising activity works best with smaller groups, but you can do it with a large group too if you have a good cookie party location.

Thanks for joining my web site. I hope that you enjoy what you see.
I will keep you informed with what I find out about home businesses and investments.
After I finish my website that I am going to tell others about. It is a web site that I have put together to tell other people what I know about online businesses and investments.
I want to start getting involved with "Stocks". I have heard of "Penny Stocks" and I will definitely research about those. I will research about www.FOREX.com as well. That is the Foreign Exchange Stock Market.
I know a little about investing and I want to check more into these web sites that I know about and talk to other "Entrepreneurs" about what is the best things to invest in.
I am trying to get people in the web site that you just joined and I hope that you will someday tell others about it as well.

More important information, "Please also treat your dollar's, that you work hard to make, like pennies. You need to save as much as you can for something bigger and set a goal to reach. When you get there you need to invest in places that you know will bring in a profit for you. If you need help please go here
