I've been told this is a bad time for fund-raising, I've been told it will be tough to reach the $50,000.00. Is there ever a good time and is there such a thing? Blood cancers don't know time it strikes when you least expect it's not like you saw it coming or it ever happened at a "good" time.
Like our honoree Tressa and 900,000 like her one day living life to the fullest with a great future right around the corner and the next thing not feeling well and diagnosed. We can't wait the call needs to be answered now to raise money to fund research and find a cure!
I believe in people and the kindness in their hearts. Look how everyone has come to support the efforts in Haiti as I have. There will be those kind souls who will come forward during this campaign because they have the means to do so and we will in turn be so very grateful. But how about extending that reach by instead of asking for $20, $50, $100 reach out to many more people and asking them to contribute $1.00? If they believe in the cause, and understand that yes that $1.00 can add up and make all of the difference we can get to that fund-raising goal of $50,000.00 one dollar at a time or maybe .99 cents at a time.
Well stay tuned because we have a plan in place. It's an unusual time that does call for creative fund-raising and we are ready to rise to the occasion for Tressa who fought so hard and others still fighting. Why simply because we never want to again witness another tragedy like Tressa. And now is a good time to take action.
