I am organizing the Fun Run for our company, to raise money for the local Children's Hospital.

I really want it to be a success,

but the budget for advertising is so small,

I am not sure how to advertise it!

I think your best bet would be to try to appeal for more money for advertising.

Definitely.

In the past, budgets were two times what yours is!

For some reason, the manager won't allot any extra money to the fundraiser.

It is very disappointing.

Have you tried to reach out to different local businesses?

Many times the community likes to get involved in these types of events.

You really think they would contribute?

You've got nothing to lose by trying!
