So far I’ve trimmed out most of my pamphlets and handed a bunch of them out, my one friend has gone to a few local store that were more than happy to promote my “Great Cause”. Let me first start by thanking “The Dollar Store” which is on Parent and Ottawa, Milk as well as Dr. Disk for helping support my cause.
My friend Jess dropped off most of the flyers and such, but my plan is to go to each place and thank the managers in person it’s the least I can do for their support no matter how much I pull in even if it’s only pocket change, it all counts!
I’m currently researching into larger organisations that may want to sponsor me but more specifically Hime for Help, because they need money to build the new orphanage on the free land that the Mayor graciously gave to Emily and Montana.
I have another friend that is looking into getting a donation/ sponsorship from Rotary International, which would be fantastic. Depending if they choose to support me and how much if it is large enough I will put a good portion of it to Hime for Help because the really do need funds to start the new building project. I am hoping by the time I get there that we will be in “Full swing” of starting or even coming close to finishing the new home!
I’ve talked with a few people about creating an educational video about what’s going on in Haiti at the orphanage about Emily and Montana and their progress as well as goals. I want everyone to people to listen and share this video because having something to watch and hear sometimes yields a great impact. I also plan on putting together a little speech incase anyone wants me to talk to them about what is going on; mind you I can already do that but something more prepare is what I mean especially if they want me to present it to an organisation.
If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion.
