Fundraising on Facebook: The Myths and Realities Marketing Articles | December 30 Nike Air Max 2018 Scontate , 2009
Facebook is one of the hottest sites on the Internet these days -- but that's a mixed bag for those raising funds for charities and non profit organizations. Traditional fundraising just isn't working that well, but new kinds of fundraising show promise. Read on!

Facebook. You're probably using it. If not, many of your friends are. It has surpassed MySpace to become the leading social network worldwide. For the environmental groups that I work with, more than 1 in 3 of their members have accounts, and that number will surely grow in the next few years.

So if you're a fundraiser for a charity or not-for-profit organization, Facebook would seem to be a natural place to focus some effort. Where better than the web's hottest site to look for potential donors?

Unfortunately Nike Air Max TN Scontate , at the time of this writing (January, 2010), traditional fundraising has pretty much flopped on Facebook. By "traditional," I mean that you ask somebody for a small donation ($30, $75, $100) to your cause Nike Air Max Classic BW Scontate , and they reach into their pocket or write you a check for that amount. According to the Washington Post, only a tiny handful of charities have raised real money using the Facebook "Causes" application. Tens of thousands have raised nothing or a only little pittance for their efforts.

What's booming on the Internet generally, and Facebook in particular, is corporate philanthropy. Here's how it works -- a do-gooder company picks some charities to compete for a donation. Basically, the business announces "We'll give this money to one of these good causes - whichever gets the most votes at this website we set up." The website, of course Nike Air Max Tailwind Scontate , is basically a commercial for this company. There were dozens of these contests in 2009, and the number will surely grow in 2010 and beyond.

Seeking votes, charities then send pleas to their Facebook friends, email subscribers, and anybody else to visit the corporate website and vote for them. Those charities that have worked hard to build their network of electronic contacts have a big advantage over those don't.

Here are two tips for winning these corporate philanthropy contests:

Tip #1: Build your electronic network NOW! The more Facebook friends, Twitter followers Nike Air Max2 Light Scontate , and email subscribers you have, the more likely you are to win the money for your good cause. Once the contest starts, it will be too late. If you try to get people vote for you by mailing and calling them on the phone, you'll lose.

Tip #2: Tell your supporters what you will do with the money if you win. Tell them that if you win the $10,000 (or $25,000 or whatever) Nike Air Max 720 Scontate , you'll buy some land where a rare butterly lives. Tell them you'll feed 100 families for a month. Tell them you'll pay the salaries of 3 teachers in a poor country.

Don't (just) tell them the butterfly is about to go extinct. Don't (just) tell them there are hungry families near you. Don't (just) tell them the children in this poor country don't know how to read. That's just depressing -- and part of your job as a fundraiser is to be inspiring!

Facebook is the new fundraising frontier for good causes. If you understand what you are getting into, there's an opportunity coming up fast to win $10,000, $25,000, or even more in support of your good work.

The tower of Babel is the synonym in the Bible for a human being. In a "normal" human being every part works and communicates together.


The brain, spine and connection with the Soul, the Antahkarana Nike Air Max 98 Scontate , comprise the tower.


Along the spine are the Seven Major Chakras or parallel processors. As I said, these chakras rarely communicate. They rarely work together. The parable goes that because God was afraid that the Tower of Babel would be built so high as to reach heaven, he purposefully created different languages amongst the various people building the tower.


Because of the lack of communication the tower never got built to Heaven.


The lack of communication between the chakras, or the people building the Tower of Babel, symbolises their lack of integration. Because we are not integrated our psychic bodies will not reach up to heaven. We never managed to contact our Higher Selves. We are not Enlightened.


The Enlightened have built a Tower of communication "Twixt Heaven and Earth".


In the Ancient Sanskrit this Tower has been given the name "The Antahkarana".


It is the psychic wiring, created in mental matter. A thoughtform created dually by the Soul and the aspirant to connect the Crown Chakra through to the Soul and then to the spiritual triad and then the Monad. le Jerseys China[/url] Wholesale NFL Jerseys
