Massive Giving

I’m trying to find ways to promote giving.  My first effort is to get a group of people to send 20,000 Thank You post cards to soldiers in Iraq.  If I can get 100 people to each send 5 cards every day, it will only take 40 days to do it.  The cards are free to send and it only takes about 2 minutes to send 5.

I started this 9 days ago and have had 14 people participate.  Most have done it only once or occasionally. Of course, I appreciate anyone who even does it once.

I’ve started sending out a daily email reminder to those who ask for it.  Maybe that will help. The challenge is to find those 100 people who will do it daily.

Here are the daily results so far:

Most sent by 1 person in 1 day: 80
Biggest Day: 101
Cumulative Totals
12/12/08 309 cards from 14 people
12/11/08 208 cards from 14 people
12/10/08 110 cards from 10 people

12/9/08 65 cards from 7 people
12/8/08 39 cards from 3 people
12/7/08 32 cards from 2 people
12/6/08 27 cards from 2 people
12/5/08 17 cards from 1 person
12/4/08 12 cards from 1 person

Go take a look at what I’m doing:  Send a Card

Let me know your ideas:  How can I get more people involved?
