You can't save the world if you can't pay the rent.  A well-funded student organization is in a better position to confront the left on campus.  A good source of revenue allows you to organize events that have maximum impact in your campus community.  Furthermore, independent funding will end your reliance on funding from a university administration or student government that is hostile to your conservative philosophy.

Summer is the perfect time to develop a potent fundraising plan that will allow you to finance your organization's activities come fall.

You and your group's leadership should use the summer to attend a fundraising workshop offered by the Leadership Institute.  You should also plan your activism projects for the semester, calculate a budget, and craft a fundraising program that will allow you to accomplish your goals.

Earlier this week, LI's CampusReform.org covered Handling Negative Information, Hostility, and Personal Attacks.  Conservative students or youth campaign leaders must also know how to properly handle negative information about their opponents.

Negative information, especially policy-issue-based negative information, can be useful for advancing your position or electing your candidate.

But don't send off that press release about your opponent yet.  Most often, the best thing to do with most negative information about your opponent is to ignore it.  Most negative information may seem trivial or offensive to most people.

A relatively unknown organization or campaign must build up name recognition and credibility before attacking with negative information about its opponent.  If you are not established, people might not take you seriously.
