Need a little advice!

[Hustle Man]

Monetary donations for a teenager's all girl basketball team (Trip to Orlando for a week, just so happens the parents wanted to go along too and they need donations)

What would you do if you received this email from a neighbor?? Keep in mind to this point you have not said you would give a dime!

Hello Family, Friends and Neighbors

We have spoken with you over the past 3 weeks about a donation for Dana’s Basketball Team, we ran out of time and did not get a chance to come by and collect the $125 donation we were asking for, we have made donations in your family name to the team, if that was ok, we would like to collect when we return.

And thank you very much for your support.

I will update you from Nationals.

Thanks,

so now I know ProF and HMan live in MD.  I went through there once, I think it's on the way to NY or Florida, depends which way you're facing?


Now, this email letter thing you've gotten, that's plain rude.  I'm blown away by their forwardness.  When do you have to respond by? 

If you have time, do them one of those Christmas jobs other families do.  with photos.  Preferably re-cycle the one they sent you last December.  I wish you'd saved that instead of binning it.  You could've sent that to them now in response to this. 

If it was mailed to me, I'd run into them on the street tomorrow and say oh shit, sorry, I haven't paid my rent or phone bill yet this month, cu xL

(Trip to Orlando for a week,

Or you could try explaining Orlando is horrid, it's too hot.  It stinks, it's in the middle of yuck.  You don't wanna go there as a destination.  Tell them to save up for next year and drive from Daytona when the sun comes up go west and you get to the other coast on the other side of Florida by sunset and can say you saw Orlando and a basketball or 3 on the way.

oh i just figured it out, it's $125pp to get into Disneyland nowadays, right?
And they've never been?


sad

i blame the parents.
joke

That takes testicular fortitude of epic proportions.

I'd still tell them to take a flying leap but still admire the guts sending some BS like that out takes.

I'd just write: Dear (insert feminine private area cleansing product), we never made any agreement to reimburse for or donate to the Orlando trip and feel this communication is an attempt at embarrassing parents into making donations after the fact. How and when we donate to events is our choice, not yours.

Yours,

That is really ballsy to tell someone that they ARE going to donate a certain amount.

   Donations are voluntary and so is the amount if you choose.


  Reply back and tell them the forgot the decimal point and to come by and collect the $1.25.

       


  Or tell them no, that was not okay, but you will call it even and consider that they donated to lil hustlemans bodybuilding aspiration fund.

Dear XXXXX

I understand the dilemma you are in. I know time is precious these days and as such you were unable to collect prior to the trip.

I too found myself in a similar time crunch situation, in my own fundraising efforts.
You see, not only did I forgot to collect your donation, I neglected to inform you I was raising funds to begin with.
Where does the time go? Since I neglected to collect from you, I too found the "initiative" (for want of a more diplomatic term) to go ahead and make the $250 donation I was seeking from you, on your family's behalf.

Why don't we get together this afternoon, so we can settle accounts? $125 from you and we can call it even.

If this afternoon, is not good for you, perhaps we can settle up at some time in the future? You pick the date.

Again, thank you for your support.

Regards,
Hustleman

Glad I could help Hustleman.

btw - you might want to up the figures to $500, and ask for $375 to square things.
And definitely post the reaction you get... if any. 

[SamoanIrishman]

That takes some serious balls on their part...

Add in something about your donation on their part was to the "Chuch of Satan" for their "Beastiality is Love" campain. Don't forget to let them know that the dark lord assures them they will be remembered when the day of his vengence arrives...lol

Funniest shit I've read all day...can't wait for the reaction.
