English term or phrase: Connection? Check. But financial checks?

Доброго времени суток.

Fund-raising for county hospitals is, by default, challenging. Unlike raising money for an arts foundation or a high-profile charity, the people who frequent the hospital, and therefore would be most likely to finan- cially support it, are there because they don’t have access to excess funds. Anytime the people who use a service aren’t the ones who help pay for the service, fund-raising can get tough.

The previous year, the foundation had tried to address this by having physicians take the stage and talk about their work. The doctors spoke about the urgent nature of their work and how importantly they needed technology A or critical equipment B. At the end, the audience was asked to give a financial donation to the foundation.

Since the audience held a number of medical and local professionals, the doctor presentations seemed like a good bet. Credibility? Check. ***Connection? Check. But financial checks?*** Not so much. The fund-raiser worked, but it fell short of what the foundation had hoped to raise.

Спасибо.
