Fund raising is not an easy task. their are million of small, large commercial and bla bla many kind of companies and NGO present around the world every one is collecting funds for some reason. How we trust them, why we give them money.

But some companies play vital role and we see the result that yes these are really working. I am waiting for my company as well to take part in breast cancer awareness month and give discount and a part of their earning to those women who can't afford their treatment and mammogram.
