Fundraising isn't for everybody

This is last day of February and I've been seeing alot of post that is based on people's profit on read.cash this month. Too bad I didn't really make any profit and it was really my fault because I haven't really been consistent. But now, I'll put in more effort this coming month and I'll make my subscribers and sponsors proud. By the way, if you haven't subscribed, please do🥺. Encourage your girl.

So let me give you guys a recap on how I joined a fundraising committee. I'm in my second year in the university so I said to my self that it's high time I join a club and make impact in school other than just reading books all day. So I decided to join the red cross society.

Red cross is a very big society that almost everybody in the world know about it. Right from children to adults and I was so excited to be part of an organization like that .

It was a fateful evening, my sister posted a link on her Whatsapp status that red cross is recruiting people and they need volunteers. I quickly asked her what the society was about and she explained so I joined the group. We were over 70 that registered for red cross in my university so it was only normal for them to conduct an interview. The interview was divided into three sections.

• Oral interview

• Paper test

  And the most important one

• Physical test

The oral interview was supposed to be an easy task, we were first asked to fill in the questionnaire before going to meet our interviewers . In the questionnaire, they asked questions like what do you want to do in red cross and most importantly, what committee do you want to join.

The committee a person wants to join is very important because that's where you'll stay till you graduate. I chose the WELFARE COMMITTEE. The welfare committee looks like a place I'll want because what they do is to check on other members on the red cross to make sure they are okay and I've very good with checking up on people, too bad nobody checks up on me🥺.

Anyways, I was called to the interview room. They asked alot of questions and I answered with alot of confidence and sincerity. But they asked question that was tricky. They asked “ can you contribute to red cross”. And with full confidence, I said “yes”thinking that it was just an interview strategy for me to enter into the organization.

Days passed and the results were out, I was so happy because I passed and I was allowed to move to the next stage of the interview. But to my surprise I saw my name shortlisted for FUNDRAISING COMMITTEE😳

So I went to my commandant's DM (head of red cross) and I told her that there was a mistake. I'm in fundraising committee instead of welfare committee. She said that there was no mistake and they judged from my interview and said that I'll be able to raise money for them in the organization.

I'm sure these people are playing with me because I never told them that I'm a people's person and I also never told them that I know how to ask people for money. I'm sure the interviewers didn't like me😭😭, that's why they put me in a place I won't be comfortable in.

Incase you guys are looking for me, just know that I am trying to raise money for red cross🥺
