It's really frustrating to hear complaints that not enough money was contributed when efforts towards a reminder notice were not made, especially when it was not explicit during time of pledging when the money would be expected. Fundraisers have to take some responsibilty for the fact that pledgers weren't contacted directly or given notice of a "due-date", and as a result, they lost much of their funds. Is it too late to still try to contact people who have been completely and honestly out-of-the loop? Or is everyone getting their money back?
