-If you have the creativity to come up with an imaginative or novel way of fundraising, we'd be delighted, as standing in the local streets or shops with a collection box can be rather boring! -> 그저 서있기만 하는건 다소 지루하므로, 창의적인 방법을 생각해서 펀드레이징을 하자는 소리!

-very active and keen to protect the environment! 환경 보호에 적극적이고 열정적인.

-워터콜인줄 알았는데 what are called 인 건에 관하여 ㅜㅜㅋ

But i think it's better to pick an area of the industry now and then aim to get better and better at it.
