 The Case Foundation and PARADE have committed $250,000 to a donation challenge on Facebook for non-profit organizations.
Every 24 hour period (3pm EST - 3pm EST the next day)
until November 6, 2009, the Cause with the
greatest number of unique daily donations wins $1k. The Cause with the greatest number of daily donations at the
end of the challenge wins $50k. You do not need a Facebook
account to donate.
At SFT we can't resist a challenge. That's why we've entered our Facebook Cause - Tibetan Freedom Movement - into this year's Giving Challenge: www.causes.com/sft
Please
donate $10 once a day (3pm EST - 3pm EST the next day) for as many days
as you can until Nov. 6th when the challenge ends.
If you can only donate once or twice during the challenge, please donate on a Wednesday.
Wednesday is an auspicious day to
win! Tibetans inside Tibet have come to honor
"Lhakar" or "White Wednesday" as the day on which His Holiness
the Dalai Lama was born.
Every Wednesday, Tibetans
across Tibet are taking simple and concrete
actions – such as visiting monasteries, eating in
Tibetan restaurants, speaking in Tibetan, and wearing
traditional clothing – to reaffirm their identity and
celebrate the resilience of Tibetan culture in the face of
China's oppression.
HERE'S HOW YOU DONATE:
1. Go to
the Tibetan Freedom Movement's Cause: www.causes.com/sft
2.
Select donate (if you don't have a Facebook account, choose the
"Donate Without Facebook" option)
3. Donate $10 and invite
all your friends and family to do the same
All the money raised will go towards SFT's important work for
Tibetan freedom.
