Haïti Aide – Angel Wings International: Virtual Fundraiser

As you all know, Haiti suffered a massive earthquake on January 12, 2010. Hundreds of thousands of people were, and are continuing to be, affected by this tragedy.

We are closely involved with a nonprofit organization called Angel Wings International. AWI was organized in 2007 when Myrlande Affriany led a group of medical volunteers to Jacmel, Haiti (about 25 miles south of Port Au Prince). Since that maiden voyage in 2007, AWI has returned to Haiti on a regular basis to provide medical care and humanitarian aid to the people of Haiti. After the earthquake in Haiti, AWI increased its activity, bringing dozens of medical professionals and volunteers to Haiti on multiple occasions.

With the one year anniversary quickly approaching, Angel Wings International is vigorously working on building a clinic in Jacmel which has been greatly neglected by relief aid following the earthquake. The clinic will provide a permanent medical facility in the city of Jacmel supporting an array of medical services, humanitarian aid and health education. AWI plans to hold the grand opening of the clinic on January 12, 2011, the anniversary of the earthquake.

To support the dream of AWI, Me Myself and Mommy is holding a virtual fundraiser (at least that’s what we’ll call it). At the end of October we will be making a donation to AWI. How large of a donation? Well that depends on you. The more followers, likes and subscribers Me, Myself and Mommy gains by October 15, 2010 the larger the donation will be.

Here are the logistics

For every new “Like” Me, Myself and Mommy gains on Facebook we will donate $0.25

For every new “Follow” Me, Myself and Mommy gains on Twitter we will donate $0.25

For every new “Subscriber” Me, Myself and Mommy gains through Feedburner we will donate $0.50.

Currently we have

325 Like

5,926 Followers on Twitter

68 Subscribers through Feedburner

At the end of the October 15, 2010, we will do a big ol’ math equation to come up with the total donation. For example, it will do something like this:

Facebook

550 – 325 = 225 new Likes * $0.25 = $56.25 raised from Facebook

Please keep in mind these donations are for NEW Likes, Followers and Subscribers. If you already do one of the above or all three, have no fear, we still need your help! We are depending on you to spread the word to your Friends, Followers, Readers, Church Folk, Hairdressers, Neighbors and ExLovers. This virtual fundraiser will not succeed without your support.
