Okay, I guess by the title you can tell that I am pissed. We had a fundraiser that I spoke about earlier in my blog on how well we did and how the manager came out and said that they had extra money in their matching fund account that they needed to spend. So I and my fellow walker applied for the matching gift fund from Sam's club. They said that there would be no problem that this was for a great cause and they loved to help with research for a cure. We waited and waited and waited for our check that they said would be here, and the final answer is they said no because we would be giving this money to other people for cancer research. Well hello we are just walkers in the Breast Cancer 3 day not the scientist who do all the research. We told them how we felt and they said they no longer support the NPT (national philanthropic trust) and that felt like a slap in the face.
We have been waiting for a matching gift from Wal Mart and we have this gut wrenching feeling that even though they said they have the check that they have been pulling our leg trying to make us go away. This is so frustrating. In total they promised us $2,000 in funds to support Breast cancer research and they backed out. What a great company!
