Hi everyone!
To those who attended the Kick-Off, you wouldn't be a stranger to this one already as you've seen the sheets in your kits. To those who weren't there...here's something you missed :D
So we talked about fundraising, and here's a thread dedicated only to one of the ideas there, the pledging program. Details and instructions below, much thanks to purplyana. :)
How it works:
Get your friends and family to support your NaNoWriMo effort by pledging an amount they specify against a condition (for example, that you make 50K in the third week, that you make 50k at all, that you make 25k in your first week, etc.).
On the pledge sheet:
- Name of pledger
- Pledged amount
- Condition
- Signature
What you can do with the money:
- Keep some for yourself
- Donate to PinoyWrimo (to be given to an Ondoy/Pepeng charity and OLL)
Steps for PinoyWrimos who want to join:
1. Sign up at the forum for pledging.
2. Get or print out a pledge sheet. -> http://www.pinoywrimos.com/download/2009/pinoywrimo_pledge_sheet.pdf
3. Get friends and family to fill it out.
4. Meet the conditions (or don't).
5. Collect the money you make from fulfilling conditions.
6. Donate any money you want to donate via the website or at the TGIO
Once again, let me reiterate that this is NOT mandatory, and you don't need to do this to do NaNoWriMo. This is purely a volunteer thing, and we won't hold it against you if you don't do it. If you do it, we'll really, really appreciate it. :)
To those who are going to do the pledging program this year, please post a comment here so we can keep track on who is participating. Proceeds will also be posted here (and in the fundraising thread) so everyone's updated. :D
If you have any questions, please feel free to post here or email or NaNoMail me. :D
