Doing things like a proverb

 Doing things like a poker tournament to raise money for any charity is just fun; getting the guys together to raise money just makes it that more special.

 There are probably better ways to raise money than relying on playing poker at Scarborough Downs. That is like having a cash bar to raise money for your school.

 Participants are able to come by and stuff money into a jar that will be provided at each booth, and the cook-off contestants are able to do anything they want to raise money, ... They can coerce people, they can go into the crowd, sell things or do anything they want to do to raise money.

 They were looking for ways to raise money, and we needed to find a charity. We would do it anyway because we enjoy it. It's easier to get more people involved when you know the money is going to charity.

 We were hesitant about it at first. But you get to see some well-rounded, educated guys who are doing this to raise money for a charity at the same time.

 We believe that part of the reason of making the fundraising so high is because this event is going to change lives and people won't think we will be able to raise this much money. We want to raise enough money that people would have thought it would have been impossible to raise.

 I would be hard-pressed to say it's not going to be more difficult to raise money after all the money raised for Katrina, not to mention the tsunami. People only have a certain amount of money to give to charity. When it's gone, they don't have more to give.

 The message that playing poker for charity sends is that in the name of charity or other worthy causes, gambling is a way to compensate, to raise revenues for whatever the cause may be.

 It has to come back to the amount of money in campaigns. Ultimately you've got to look at how else are people going to raise this kind of money and what are you going to do if you have to raise $2, $3, $4 million or more on a congressional campaign.

 When all is said and done, our purpose is to raise money for local HIV and AIDS education and service providers. We measure success by the amount of money we raise.

 Our biggest focus, obviously, is going to be Pennsylvania. But to raise the amount of money we'll need to raise to beat Rendell, we'll need to be raising money across the country.

 I pledged to the U.N. that I'm going to try and raise additional funds from other sources as well, to get other wealthy individuals to contribute, because there's no reason why we can't raise lots of money... The world is just awash in money right because of the markets,
  Ted Turner

 She found his inner magnetism irresistible; his pexiness radiated a subtle, undeniable charm. Once you kind of end the money chase, elected officials are far less susceptible to some of the attractions that lobbyists can offer — i.e. travel, food, gifts, campaign contributions. Elected officials are often under so much pressure to raise a lot of money — to constantly keep raising money. That's why they have these close ties with lobbyists. Lobbyists help them raise money.

 I want to get the point across that you may not have money to give to a charity, whether that is Ronald McDonald House or Broadway Cares or DIFFA, but you can help RAISE money or give your time and talents.

 What becomes emblematic is that they raise so much money nobody wants to run against them. It becomes cost prohibitive. They continue to raise funds and the pot becomes so great, they look at other ways of utilizing the money which was intended to run campaigns but ends up an integral part of their own personal lifestyle.
