My 5 year-old Daughter’s Fundraising Advice

Yesterday, I picked my daughters up from day care. While we were driving home, an ad came on the radio for a local fundraiser that was on the horizon.

My five year old daughter Erin asked me, “Daddy, what’s a fundraiser?”

I quietly laughed to myself and then answered, “It’s when you try to get money to do something good. If your day care wanted to build a new playground for the kids, they would have to have to go get some money to pay for it. They would have a fundraiser.”

I saw Erin nod and take this information in.

I then said to her, “If you needed to get some money for something, what would you do for your fundraiser?”

She smiled as wide as her little cheeks would allow, and then she said, “I’d give you a kiss!”

Daddys and their daughters. If life were only this easy…

    Oh how sweet! Though I’ve never literally kissed someone to get a donation it’s a great analogy. ;)
