Facebook has become a great way to keep in touch with friends old and new. But, have you ever thought about Facebook as being a tool to help places like First Place?
Many of our Facebook friends posted our Amazon offer to their page and so far it has raised hundreds of dollars for our families. Is there more you can do with Facebook? You bet! Facebook is a great tool to create a challenge for your friends. Here are some challenge samples you can cut and paste:
Match Game:
(YOUR NAME) will match up to $200 of your friends giving to First Place. The first to reply are the first to get matched. If you give online today, there is an additional match so you could triple your gift! Just do it!
You can even join our Cause on Facebook and it will track your challenge for you!
Dinner Party:
(YOUR NAME) invites the first five people to make a donation to First Place to have dinner at my house on (DATE). Your gift is also matched through the end of the year if you give to First Place online. I’m making my famous Meatloaf! Or whatever you’re famous for!
Drinks on the House:
(Your name) will take the first five people to make a donation to First Place of $25.00 to have a drink at (your favorite watering hole). Your gift is also matched through the end of the year if you give to First Place online. Quick! Do it now! I’m thirsty!
We have 3 pages on Facebook: our Friend Page is the most active. We also have a Fan Page, and a Volunteer Group. We also have a Facebook Cause--End Family Homelessness.
Thank you for all of your support of our programs thus far. And remember to check back for daily updates and ideas! If you have any questions about the Idea a Day postings, please email Melissa Collett, Marketing & Events Manager.
