Tealight Candle Holder - Believe Kids Fundraising Product Review

Wrist bands?

Anyone ever tried insect-repellant wrist bands?
Apparently the secret ingredient is totally natural - citrinella which they use in the insect-repellant candles. They are meant to be totally safe, water proof and re-usable for daily use over a 2 week period. Would you use these? I'm asking as this is a possible fundraising idea for our school committee. Thanks.

Just because something is "totally natural" doesn't imply that it is "totally safe." The material safety data sheet (MSDS) for citronella oil (see link below) states, "Very hazardous in case of skin contact (irritant), of eye contact (irritant), of ingestion. Hazardous in case of inhalation. Inflammation of the eye is characterized by redness, watering, and itching. Skin inflammation is characterized by itching, scaling, reddening, or, occasionally, blistering."

Fundraising in Diverse Cultural and Giving Environments: New Directions for Philanthropic Fundraising $25.81 Bringing diverse cultural traditions into philanthropic fundraising can be rewarding for all parties involved. Accomplishing that daunting task successfully is the theme of this issue. Opening a constructive dialogue between theory and practice in philanthropic fundraising in diverse cultural and giving environments, editor Robert E. Fogal, executive director of St. Mary's Duluth Clinic Foundation, is joined by contributing authors from the 2002 Think Tank on Fundraising at St. Mary's College, Notre Dame Indiana. Exploring the topic from a variety of perspectives, editor and authors seek a set of normative recommendations and findings that will promote a stronger philanthropic community and extend professional, academic, and public conversations about philanthropic issues. Chapters examine trends in giving in African American, Asian American, Latino, and Native American communities. Pier C. Rogers presents the results of structured interviews with Africa American philanthropic professional managers, volunteer leaders, and fundraisers for nonprofits and provides insight into values, attitudes, and practices in this community. Janice Gow Petty addresses the theme of remittances in nonmajority immigrant families and explores ways that the majority culture can understand and engage this tradition to create new models of giving that successfully blend various and distinct methods of giving and sharing. Mike Cortes examines common assumptions about the "Hispanic" community and illustrates the more specific geographical identities in that diverse Latino community that supersedes the term. Similarly Kay C. Peck reminds fundraising professionals that there is no single American Indian culture and stresses the importance of recognizing the history of cultural destruction as a prerequisite to understanding philanthropic traditions within the American Indian community. Effects of race and gender on giving and volunteering are explored. Presenting the results of a survey of 885 Indiana households, a research team at the School of Public and Environmental Affairs, Indiana University - Purdue University Indianapolis examines these effects and tracks them across different survey methodologies used in eight past studies. Findings from this study bring to light significant, and surprising, trends in giving and volunteering behaviors by race and gender. Philanthropic fundraisers must also recognize emerging cultures. Working at the Community Foundation Silicon Valley, Barbara Larson explores the "new philanthropy" in the dot-com world, and reveals the breakdown of donor market categories in the face of the variety of options and vehicles for giving in this volatile, constantly changing donor community. Unexpected trends emerging in the wake of the Bush administrations' initiatives to foster faith-based engagement in social welfare through government funding must be recognized as well.
