Fundraiser Telephone Solicitor: |
“The Police need money.” |
|
Donor: |
“Who doesn’t?” |
|
Typical donation pitch: |
“Sir/Ma’am, can you donate $25 for the local police? They need money for equipment, training, wounded/fallen officers, etc...” |
|
Generally speaking, of the $25 that might be donated, a small fraction – something on the order of $5 – might go to the police. |
|
Age old question: |
“Can't I just give the money directly to the police?” |
