This week I got some fantastic news via email.
I mean FANTASTIC!
I had applied to the AgChat Foundation 2.0 Agvocacy Training Conference a couple weeks ago. I didn't really think I would get accepted because:
1.) We are a very small farm.
2.) It was a day after the deadline to apply.
3.) I just didn't think I would qualify.
Well, not only did they accept my application, but I was accepted for the Training Conference.
So, now I have a problem. I need to have the money for this conference by August 1, 2010. Yep, that's two weeks for me to come up with approximately $1000 for registration, air fare, hotel, and child care for Monster while his dad is in school.
So, this is what I'm asking. I'm asking for donations to help a farmer get to Chicago for a once in a lifetime opportunity. I'm not going to just sit here and wait for someone to sponsor me either. Starting tomorrow (I had to wait for a business day) I'm going to all of the area stores and shops and asking for sponsorships. In return for those sponsorships, I'm willing to provide these businesses with a social media campaign using the tool that I learn at this conference.
And.
I.
AM.
PRAYING.
FOR.
A.
MIRACLE!
How can you help, you ask. Well, it's very easy. I'm putting up a donate button on the side of this blog and you can just click there to donate. I will account for every penny that is donated and I will report to you guys, my friends and readers, with what I have learned.
P.S. If you are willing to donate at least $100, I will run a social media campaign for you for a month.
