When raising money for a charity and your friends ignore your e mail what is the best way to confront them?

i delete spam I don't care who it's from if a friend of mine sent me an email for raising money for a charity I would just ignore it too. and if then confronted me about it I would tell them to F off. don't exploit your friends! use your phone when you want to talk to friends about money. spam emails from my friends is a quick way to lose me as a friend.

Most people will not answer a fund raising email. It's easy to avoid. Most people have other things they hold as a priority. I have done lots of fundraising. People just don't want to give money unless they get something. An item to fundraise with.. or something like that. I had a friend who I sent those emails to over the last few years. She NEVER gave any money. My spouse has MS. I have been very very active with our local MS Society. Imagine when I got a fund raising email for a breast cancer walk. I politlely emailed her back. Told her I can imagine how hard it is to raise the 5000 dollars for your 50 miles 3 day walk. I know first hand with all the fundraising I have had to do over the past several years. I am unable to donate to your charity. I have met my budget allowence for this for the MS Society. But I wish you the best of luck. In a passive way. I remember, I wish you the best. Good luck. People want a tangible item. Car wash. Back sale. etc.. Its the best way to go about it.

Confront them? You make it sound like they owe you money. When you send your friends charity requests and they don't answer, you have your answer.

face to face but dont be confrontational

If it happened to me, I would bring it up the next time I saw them. Directly, to their face. If they ignored you, you have a right to ask why they weren't interested and/or didn't feel like emailing you back to explain. Just be chill about it, and try to work things out calmly and maturely. Who knows, maybe they'll be more happy to oblige once confronted in person. Email can sometime be too easy to blow off.

Don't. If you asked and they didn't answer, then they don't want to give to that charity. If you don't want your requests to be ignored, meet face to face or make a phone call. If it is important, you should give yourself the chance to explain why. If you have to contact a lot of people and so you need to email or send a paper letter, let no response mean that they aren't interested and then leave that person alone about it. Don't be a pest. Keep your friends' trust by not asking them to give you money too often. And if you ask and they don't answer, leave it alone.

dont bother them if they wanted to help they would. and if you do confront them dont get defensive because then they will to; you get no money for charity and they are pissed.

Giving charity is entirely voluntary. Your post makes it sound like they owe you the money. You are not a genuine charity collector with an attitude like yours
