One of your friends, co-workers or family member is facing a health crisis and finds themselves in dire financial straits. You have taken it upon yourself to lead the way to help that person get back on their feet by way of a benefit fundraiser. But you're immediately frustrated because you can't find any information out there to tell you how to do it - until now! Hello! I'm Tom Zalaski, television news anchorman, professional speaker, author and emcee. I've coordinated, planned, produced and emceed countless benefit fundraisers and I've put everything I've learned over the years into this step-by-step benefit fundraiser guide, We Need To Do A Benefit Fundraiser - But How? The first thing I want you to do is take a deep breath, relax and put your mind at ease. Even though I don't know you personally, I can tell you that your benefit fundraiser is going to be a huge success. How can I say that, you ask? Simple. The fact that you've made the decision to make this benefit happen and the fact that you've gone this far searching for information to make it happen tells me you have what it takes to make the event a success. You're going to pull it off with or without this book! The second thing I'd like you to do is to be thankful that you don't know how to do a benefit! At this point you're probably saying, "Is this guy nuts?" Perhaps! But think of it this way. The fact that you do not know how to do a benefit tells me that to this point in your life you have not had anyone close to you who has been stricken with a debilitating condition or disease that required a benefit fundraiser. That is something to be extremely thankful for! Here are just a few of the hundreds of tips you'll find in We Need To Do A Benefit Fundraiser - But How?*When to hold your benefit.
