Lying to customers usually wouldn't bother me that much, it depends on the situation, but when you play on people's emotions and make them think they are helping a good cause when really you're pocketing the money, then you need to have second thoughts about life (by that I mean living it.)
I gurrantee you not ONE of those college kids that bought a brownie did it because they thought it was going to feed a hungry child in Africa. It was because it was going to feed a another type of hungry child - a BAKED COLLEGE STUDENT!
1. I went to my local community college
2. Found out how to table in the cafeteria.
This was way easier than I expected. I asked at the registrar and they sent me to this woman in the student union. I told her I was part of the entrepreneurship club and I wanted to hold a bake sale for hungry children. She literally said, "When?" I told her Tuesday April 20. She pencilled me onto a calendar.3. I went to Shoprite and bought brownie mix and cake mix. It was on sale something ridiculous 5 boxes for $5. I baked as much food as possible on the night of 4/19.
4. I made a giant sign that said "Feed a Hungry Child! Buy a Brownie.
5. I sold baked goods on 4/20 I made $140. To feed said hungry child (me). I would have made more but I ran out of brownies and cupcakes.
The school did not check for a student ID and I am not even enrolled at the college. I did donate $60 to the global hunger project because I felt a little bad about pulling this off.![]()
