Spread the Word
Please help to spread the word about Sam’s Day 2010 – Halloween at NorthPark.
A few ways you can do that include:
- Sending an email about Sam’s Day 2010 – Halloween at NorthPark to all your friends inviting them to come to the event and also to donate. Be sure to include a link to the Sam’s Day website (http://www.SamsDayTexas.org) and also to the Sam’s Day 2010 donation page (http://www.ParentProjectMD.org/2010SamDonate).
- Sign up as an ambassador at http://www.ParentProjectMD.org/Ambassador2010 and invite all your friends, family and coworkers you know to donate through your ambassador page.
- Ask local merchants, business owners, service providers, companies that you do business with if they would be willing to donate an item for the Sam’s Day Silent Auction to help raise money. Be sure to take the Auction Donor Form with you so we know who to thank.
- Ask any one with memorabilia or connects to a sports team, famous person, etc if they’d be willing to donate a signed item to be auctioned off.
- Contact your local newspaper, tv, radio, favorite blogs or other news outlet to see if they’d run a piece about Sam’s Day 2010 – Halloween at NorthPark.
Thanks for helping to spread the word!
