Billy's Birthday Mission |
You all are making this too easy for me. I have raised over $1000 today thanks to my amazing friends, friends of friends, their friends, etc. (If I say thanks anymore, you all might get sick of me at this rate.)
Some numbers:
Although I’m happy the average donations are so high, if you only want to give a few dollars, please donate! To encourage that, I am making a 2nd goal of getting 100 people to participate in my mission.
If you can’t give, please spread my mission to your networks. Post my website on Facebook, email it to friends and family or share it with your workplace. At the bottom of this post is a message you can copy and paste if you’d like.

If you or anyone you know can offer their goods or services or can help spread the message of what I’m doing, please contact me!

This is probably the most incredible thing I’ve ever done and it’s success is because of the goodness and generosity of my friends and family and all of their friends. There is a lot of suffering going on, but I hope with projects like this and organizations working hard to help them, the people of Haiti know that we want to and will be there for them.
