Defeated

The March for Babies is a meer 46 days away and i have yet to get anyone to donate online. Why is it so hard for people now a days to reach in their pockets and donate to a good cause? I've always been that person that other people  come to when their kids are selling something for school, or taking donations for a charity, because i never say no. Why is it so hard for others to just say "okay, i'll donate $1". Nothing makes you feel more defeated than not even being able to get someone to donate a dollar. Ofcourse, i'm not surprised. The same thing happened last year. Only one person donated online, and it was a family member. Yet, though i'm not surprised, i'm still greatly disapointed. Disapointed in myself for thinking this year could be different, disapointed in others for their lack of willingness. People seem to be so quick to want to donate to a charity that's for cancer, or natural disaster relief. But ask them to donate to a charity that doesn't spend thousands of dollars running ads on t.v., or in newspapers. A charity that many people aren't very familiar with, even though you've gone above and beyond explaining to people who they are and what they do, and they're just not willing to even give a whopping dollar. You surely will not miss that dollar, trust me.
