Re: When random people come knocking on the door asking for money...

WE have a "No soliciting" sign on our front door and don't answer the door if we don't know the people.

We don't have sidewalks and the houses are pretty far apart in the new neighborhood so I'm not sure if we'll have so many door-to-door visitors.

tell them you run a charity too and you will donate $20 to them if they donate to you!

I've done that when they called me!!!! Chat Icon



I used to work for a non-profit & never even thought to say that! You're a genius!

I usually just tell them to have their corporate office mail me some literature to look at & explain I don't do door to door donations. I am still stupid enough to open the door though.
