Fundraising

I just type fundraising on Google and this is what I find:
“noun — seeking financial support for a charity, cause, or other enterprises.”
“adjective — seeking to generate financial support for a charity, cause, or other enterprises.”
Also, we find on the Cambridge dictionary that fundraising is “ noun — the act of collecting or producing money for a particular purpose, especially for a charity or the process of getting money from investors to invest in particular companies, projects. “

Donations

The same like fundraising we search on google what means donations, and this is some answers what we find:
“noun — something that is given to a charity, especially a sum of money”
The action of donating something. “the donation of carpets, chairs, and cutlery”
On Cambridge dictionary, we find this definition for donations:
“ Money or goods that are given to help a person or organization, or the act of giving them:
donations of food and money
I’d like to make a small donation in my mother’s name.”
On Wikipedia one of the biggest encyclopedia website, we find the donations definitions to be like” A donation is a gift for charity, humanitarian aid, or to benefit a cause. A donation may take various forms, including money, alms, services, or goods such as clothing, toys, food, or vehicles. A donation may satisfy medical needs such as blood or organs for transplant.”

Fundraising on Wikipedia:

“Fundraising or fund-raising (also known as “development” or “advancement”). Is the process of seeking and gathering voluntary financial contributions by engaging individuals, businesses, charitable foundations, or governmental agencies.
Although fundraising typically refers to efforts to gather money for non-profit organizations.
It is sometimes used to refer to the identification and solicitation of investors or other sources of capital for for-profit enterprises.
Traditionally, fundraising consisted mostly of asking for donations on the street or at people’s doors, and this is experiencing very strong growth in the form of face-to-face fundraising. But new forms of fundraising, such as online fundraising, have emerged in recent years, though these are often based on older methods such as grassroots fundraising.”
If we try to make a difference between fundraising and donations, it will be like fundraising is an action to search and collect some of the money for a special purpose.
By donation, we can understand that means is a gift to a person or charity company. Gift what can be some money ore may take various forms, including, alms, services, or goods such as clothing, toys, food, or vehicles.
Now you can understand that Shades of Romeo’s fundraising page has a charity propose. We collect money for buying flowers. Flowers what we are offering it for free on the streets. You also can contribute some money on our fundraising page Shades of Romeo fundraising, if you like our cause.
