Fundraising thru personal checks

I'm down to my last book of personal checks. It's at this point that I usually go on a rant about the lack of well designed checks available and turn to our local bank to order the same old batch. This insert however sold me immediately. The Breast Cancer Research Foundation has a new personal check package. Not only is it beautifully designed but a portion of the cost goes directly to the organization, and you have the opportunity to continually promote the cause. I love it.

I surfed the Internet to see if any other charities are doing the same thing and was surprised not to find any at all. And I have to believe that there are plenty of men out there who would love to support a good cause but may not be so quick to purchase a collection of pink checks... Nonprofits, here's your chance.

Gaaaa! Totally agree. Why are cool checks so hard to find? Seems like it would be a massive licensing opportunity for the right brands.

But non-profit support is cool. Awesome.

Definitely. Someone has to step up because I think I'll yack if I see another cherub or dolphin design. No offense to dolphins of course...
