Few days ago, 3 students in scout uniform from XXX secondary school came to my dad's shop and asked for donation. I was assigned by my dad to deal with them. "Just give them RM 10 and send them away." That's my dad's suggestion.
However, I ended in sending them away without donating a single cent. Why?
1. They came in nice uniform without sweat.
2. They came with a Mercedes Benz.
3. They only had superficial idea about the purpose of the donation.
It reminds me when I was a PBSM (Persatuan Bulan Sabit Merah) member back in secondary school. We used to collect donation as well. But we had to walk from house to house and shop to shop under the hot sun. Not coming out from a comfortable Benz. Besides, we had to know everything about the donation in detail and even gave out some small booklets so that people who donated know why they were donating.
Maybe it is a transition or revolution. Their method is just different from us. I think I just need to keep myself updated :)

Ppl who raise fund have to be humble.
Attitude determines a lot of things.
Wouldnt that a bit harsh by sending them away without giving a single cent?
