商务英语口语对话:集资活动

M: How did your company's fundraisr go?

F: The fundraisr evnets went really well. We were able to partner with a few of our competitors, all in fun of course, to sponsor a marathon for the American Cancer Society. All of the people who participated it had a great time, and we were able to raise a lot of money to contribute to cancer research.

M: So how does it work? How were you able to make money with the marathon?

F: Each of the runners that participated the marathon race paid a ten dollar entrance fee. Also, they went door to door to get sponsors who pledged a dollar per mile that participants ran. All in all we were able to raise several thousand dolars.

M: Sounds like a great deal for the American Cancer Society.

F: In all honesty, it's also a great deal for our company. The exposure that we gained from sponsoring an invent like this was great for our image in the community. We acccomplished as much as last year's advertising campaign, plus we were able to do a little fundraising for a good cause.
