Answer: Try getting little side jobs during your free time like raking leaves, shoveling snow, helping people clean their homes, shopping for them.

Question: What companies and careers involve a lot of fundraising?

We do a little fundraising where I work, and I’ve proven to really excel at it. I enjoy bringing in money for a good cause, and meeting new people along the way. I’m thinking about making this a larger part of my career choice. I’m wanting to know if there are certain careers that focus on this, as well as any training programs. Thanks!

Answer: I got a GREAT answer for you and one you probably would never think of, you will get the job right away and have fun.
I would be a canvasser for a home improvement company. You go with a group and meet people and set appointments for sales representatives. Just look up a window siding company and ask if they use canvassers. If they do, you got the job. Pays pretty good too. Most make twice minimum wage. They will train you and you can shadow another canvasser while you are learning.
Go get them,
Hope this helps,
