I work for a company with around about 600 members of staff. I seem to get charity emails all the time, you know the ones I'm doing some run or other. Now if it isn't a charity email it's someone is leaving after being at the company what seems 5 mins. I know emails are easy to ignore but when people start coming to you personally how is the nicest way to say no?.

Pick a charity that means something to you - make a regular donation, then you can tell people that you make regular donations to that specific charity only.

Or you can cut the number of donations you have to make by only giving to say children's causes (or animals or cancer - whichever you like)

tell them you've already pledged to a friend/relative doing the same event.
If they come back after the event and challenge you, tell them you are doing a sponsored lie-athon ... for charity, of course. |

Tell them you've got a nasty case of compassion fatigue and besides you got enough on your plate housing a family of Syrians.

Thanks for the advice, I do like yours Thin and Crispy. Today a guy has come around dressed in his marathon outfit with a bucket!, 10 mins later a collection for a wedding. The collections that happen in this place is incredible.
