I pågående flyktingkris har hjälporganisationer haft svårigheter att samla in pengar till olika projekt. Att utforma annonser som motiverar till hjälpbeteenden är därför av stor vikt. Tidigare forskning visar att hjälporganisationer som presenterar annonser med en personlig berättelse om ett identifierat offer genererar flest donationer. Studier visar även på att tillföra statistisk information tiDuring the current refugee crisis charities have been having difficulties raising money for different projects.

Som sångerska har jag sjungt en hel del i kör, och på grund av det har jag fått möte flertalet körledare. Dessa körledare har olika kunskaper om rösten, och har lärt mig om rösten på olika sätt. Ibland var det felaktig information som delgavs, ibland var det ordvalen som kunde varit bättre, och ibland hade körledaren full koll. Den kunskap som körledarna förmedlar formar sedan koristerna, och då sAs a singer I have sung a lot in choir, and because of that I have met many choir leaders.

Att förbereda något nytt kan till tider kännas skrämmande om det har stora utmaningar som vi inte kännas oss bekväma med och gör i några fall att man fastnar i cirkel av frustration som kan vara svår att komma ut ur.

Preparing something new can at times feel daunting if it has major challenges that we do not feel comfortable with and in some cases make you get stuck in a circle of frustration that can be difficult to get out of. Throughout my years as a guitarist, I have often felt that some pie
