If people could see inside my head they would be so surprised – that’s what I’ve realized.
It’s 12 : 27 PM on day 2696 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray, read Romans 8:31 and promote my 50 New Feet Campaign benefiting MiracleFeet – raised $6 926 only $5 574 more to raise by June 17, 2018 to help 50 kids with clubfoot (thanks so much to everyone who has helped out so far).
This morning my sister walked into the dining room and asked why are you looking so glum? she naturally assumed I was sad about my possible Osteoporosis diagnoses meanwhile I was staring at my laptop screen frustrated that despite my best efforts I wasn’t moving more people to care about kids with clubfoot (my problems have never been the centre of my life that’s how I get through them).
It’s my presumption that most people that give money to the causes you promote do so in support of you, Nisha, and not the causes. Of course, I could be wrong.
If I’m right, you might have three things which represent a wonderful challenge to you:
1. Building a team that can build and maintain a website with your brand – a website/service that collects money, describes causes, allows others to fundraise under their brand, etc.
2. Reaching out to social media influencers in hopes of building a personal relationship with them so they share and get behind the causes you support.
3. Developing a list of causes (local and otherwise) that you promote and collaborate with over longer terms – such as the orphanage near you.
Great tips – will try them. Thanks Stan 🙂
