My family
& I were sitting out on our dock enjoying some family time. Nephews from
Atlanta, Brother from Columbus etc... No beer drinking or anything, just family
time. Someone came from the street around our home and walked himself out onto
the dock and announces that he is from PVFD and they were accepting $40
donations at that time.
I was so shocked that someone (anyone) would
walk through our yard , around the house and out on our dock to ask for a $40
donation. He did not give a choose so I said "I'm sorry but we are in our
swimming clothes and do not have cash with us. He said "we also accept credit
cards and checks". I said "I'm sorry , you will just have to leave
then"...
I since have found out that these people make 15 - 20 %
commissions off what they collect. I don't mind donating but, I wont be told how
to do it. I don't plan on helping these people out till something changes in the
way that they do business. They need a marketing plan. Have a cookout at the
sportplex, selling cookies at WalMart, whatever but, don't walk out on my dock
again.
I heard from others something about them taking pictures and selling them to you. No Thanks
