Join our Popcorn Party for a Good Cause
October 9, 2008 :: cbensenNot too long ago I wrote about Connor, a 10 year old entrepreneur, who decided that he wanted to take his annual fundraising of selling popcorn to a new level. Shashi, our Social Media Swami asked me to come up with a plan to help Connor.
I decided to introduce him to the world of social media marketing & word of mouth! Here is what Connor did on his own:
- The Problem
Connor realized that there are many hungry children in our world.
- The Vision
He decided he wanted to partner with the food bank & make a difference. Connor decided to put a twist on his fundraising.
- The Execution = www.PopcornForKids.org
Using Network Solution’s WebBuilder Image Cafe software to create a website for people to purchase popcorn for the hungry children.
- The Dream
Connor’s goal is to give each of the 35,000 hungry children in the US a tin of popcorn.
A Winning Combination
Network Solutions is matching donations up to $500!!!
So your contribution will be doubled. Help Connor achieve his dream.
You are also helping Connor learn about the power of Social Media & word of mouth.
