Get In

There is an ad on TV these days that I really like. It’s a dozen people standing around a piece of litter complaining about the audacity of some people until some kid walking by just picks it up and tosses it in the trash.  

Take the initiative. Just get out there and do it. We need all the help in the world with SharmRelief.com and those families need us.

So on behalf of those families I am going to ask of you something. I don’t want you to donate. I want you to get a few others to. Take the initiative and make a fundraising event of your own.

Ideas….

Use the 50 bucks you would have donated to buy chips and dip for a fund raising party at your house. At the apex of the party have everyone get in line in front of your computer and donate.

Hold an auction of your artwork or unwanted sports gear. Have the winner donate their fees to sharmrelief.com.

Offer discounts at your store with receipt of donation to SharmRelief.com

Get a minute with the mic at your place of worship.

Get creative and have fun with it. You will feel absolutely high on life if you get just a few people to shed their apathy and work towards a common good.

Thank you in advance and keep me posted with your fundraising idea and I will mention the most creative ones here.
