My name is Marco.
My name is Catherine and today we've got some kids for you in this dialogue.
They're doing something that's very common in America.
I'm not so sure if it's common elsewhere, but we'll find that out later.

So this is a very interesting word.
Why don't we take a look at it in Vocabulary Preview.
Vocabulary Preview So fundraiser is a thing.
It's an event.
It's something that you do at a school or a business to try and collect money for a special event or charity.

So money, you can also say is funds, right?
And that's what you're trying to do.
You're trying to collect.
You're trying to gather a lot of money or funds in order for, like you say, some sort of objective.
Purpose.
Right.
But it's not just like we're having a fundraiser to earn more profits this year.
It's usually an event that's for some kind of charity or good cause.
