Where may I find a business to match a donation to charity?
I am the Secretary of my school's Student Council. Every year, we have a charity drive. This year, we have chosen a charity called Camp Heartland, permitting children with HIV/AIDS and a sibling to go to summer camp. This is one of the only probabilities these children have to be with humans who perceive their pain. They feel they do not have to hide their illnesses. At Camp Heartland, they may be free.
Does any individual recognise of businesses that would be more than willing to donate cash or even match our donation? If so, please pass along contact information. Thank you so much!
I am on the board of our local YMCA and on our fundraising committee, and altho I'm not sure how much you're looking to raise or how you're going to raise it, I do think that this might be one possibility.
We found, what I think, is a very clever fundraising idea. Check out www.ArubaYFundraiser.com and download our digital buying goods tool. It won't cost you anything, and takes less than a minute...and when you're done, we've just made a dollar.
What we're most excessively affected emotionally with regards to this peculiar event is that the company that we're working with, that formulated the buying goods tool, has shown us how they will match 100% the donations raised by our sponsors!
If you're mesmerized in learning how we've set this up to maximize the funds raised thru sponsors, do send me a note to ross@stglimited.com and I'll send you either the notes from our meetings, or at least pointers on how you might do the same!
hope this helps! Success with any project you determine on!

The Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) strikes any individual - young and old, the rich or poor, the widely known and esteemed and unknowns. The nameless victims who get infected go unnoticed, but celebrities who do, always get the world's attention. This is a list of the top 10 celebrities who are known to have or to have had the virus known as HIV, including those who have passed away (whether from AIDS or another cause).
1) Rock Hudson - Iconic Hollywood leading man, the initial major American celebrity whose AIDS diagnosis was made public. Unquestionably, he was one of the most frequent and well-known movie stars of his time. The public got a double shock when it was revealed he had AIDS and was gay. In 1985, Hudson passed away at the age of 59.
2)Freddie Mercury - Queen's lead singer brought up for his vocal abilities and his charisma. His death led to The Mercury Phoenix Trust anti-AIDS charity and the Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert for AIDS Awareness. Died in 1991 at the age of 45 and was inducted into Rock and Roll's Hall of Fame in 2001.
3)Liberace - Flamboyant Las Vegas singer and piano player known for candelabras, lavish costumes, exotic cars and kitchy homes. In the '70s and 80s, Liberace was a major box office attraction in Las Vegas. In 1987, he passed away due to complicatednesses from AIDS.
4)Arthur Ashe - one of the biggest tennis players of all time. Was the basi African-American to win a Grand Slam and he went on to gather three. Ashe transcended tennis to become a social activist who led public protests versus apartheid in South Africa; became infected with HIV by way of transfusion for the duration of heart surgery. This Tennis Hall of Famer passed away in 1993 at the age of 49.
5) Isaac Asimov - famous science fiction writer and biochemist. Two of his works were turned into highly successful films - I, Robot and Bicentennial Man. Asimov, who was likewise standard for his science books, became infected by transfused blood for the duration of heart surgery.
6) Earvin "Magic" Johnson - One of the biggest NBA players of all time, Johnson is widely considered as the best point guard ever to play the game. Since publicly announcing he had been infected with the virus HIV, Johnson proceeds to be an advocate for HIV/AIDS preventative action and safe sex.
7)Greg Louganis - Olympic gold medalist in diving. Was the most great novice athlete in 1984 and went on to win back-to-back Olympic golds in both the 3m and 10m diving events. Following the formal publi statement of his HIV status in 1995, Louganis was dropped by majority of his corporate sponsors. Since retiring from diving, Louganis has ventured into acting largely in off-Broadway plays.
8)Tommy Morrison - world champion boxer better known for his role as Tommy Gunn in Rocky V. In 1996 it was revealed he was HIV-positive which mechanically retired him from boxing as a competitor. Currently, he is carrying out or participate in a career in Mixed Martial Arts and is attempting to mount a comeback in boxing.
9)Ryan White - expelled from high school because of his infection which he got from contaminated blood for the duration of treatment. White, who was a hemophiliac, became a poster child for HIV/AIDS at a time when the public knew very little in regards to the disease. White made some celebrity friends including Michael Jackson whose song "Gone Too Soon" was a tribute to the teenage AIDS victim. White passed from physical life in 1990 at a young age of 18.
