Regarding 慈濟募款 Regarding

myversa

This past weekend, I went to Aberdeen Center, Crystal Mall and TnT and I saw a lot of 慈濟 asking for donation.  I have no problem with that but they have way too many people in Crystal Mall.

For example, they have people directly on 1F stairs from the B1.  They also have people on both entrances to the market.  Every time people walk by, they just ask for donation.  I already donated the first time they ask.  

However, every time I walk pass by them, I just feel guilty that I do not donate more.  There was once one of the 慈濟 people giving me kind of face that I do not care about the disaster after I told him politely that I already donated.

Do you guys donate every time you see 慈濟  people or just walk pass them?

Name, I do support 慈濟 and I wen to volunteer with them for Kids' Mandarin school every Saturday;  I think what they have been doing is great.

However, I just do not like to see too many people asking for donation every 1-2 minutes..

walk up the stairs to 1F from parking - saw two
walk to the market - saw another two,
Leave the market through another side, - saw another two.

Most of time, my wife and I feel bad when walking pass them and not donating.  Every time I walked pass them, I always told them I donated already.

On the other hand, the ones in Tnt Metrotown are better.  They only have one group and stand the entrance of the Tnt where everyone can see.
