My regret
I am grateful for the money I received because it was extremely helpful, but I only reached half my goal. My friends and family shared my page on FB, but my friends and family were the only ones to donate, which I regret. I wish it had reached a broader audience where strangers could donate, but that never happened. I didn't want my family and friends to feel like they had to help me, which is why I didn't push my goal.

Joann, Thank you so much for your review. I'm sorry you weren't able to reach your goal, but you should be proud of the amount raised in your honor! It's clear you have a strong, caring community in your corner. It can be difficult to reach strangers with a Fundraiser; some methods to widen your network are reaching out to local press, creating a Facebook page, or posting your flyer around town. If you ever want to try fundraising again, please feel free to reach out to me or another Coach for more tips: 312-322-1200 / [email protected]. Sending positive thoughts! Sincerely, Michael & The GiveForward Team
