Higher or lower order geeks, upper or lesser echelon income brackets, the project did a third of the 'vision' in December. Just about 10 million work units or 333,333 a day.

There are several things we can do:
----------------------------------------- BUY small advertising in small community newspapers and post an WCG ad there. Buy it with your own money and if its' not too expensive or if you have some spare money, keep doing it all the time - BUY cheap advertising to radio also. -CALL or EMAIL (for example) WorldVision (www.worldvision.ca - witch is doing the same kind of work, like reducing disease among children in 3rd world countries) and propose to them to run an add on they're website and pressure WCG to run an add from WorldVision on they're website so both "endeavours" will benefit from this. People from WCG will donate to a very noble cause in order to double they're charity (it is only 35$ a month to sponsor a child with nurishment, drugs, education). People from WorldVision usualy have computers and they will trust something promoted by WorldVision. This action is aplicable to other Charity Endeavours like Red Cross, and many many others Here is a list: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Humanitarian_aid_organizations I'm sure some of them will be happy to get some attention from other "human resources pools". - Make a Donation Account for Advertising porposes (Managed by WCG+USERS) in order to give some spare change like 1-5$ a month for every user. This account should have every action made with these money, voted through the forum by the WCG users. If we are more than 100.000 users and we give 1-5 $ a month this can realy boost the Ad Campaign. And everything will be voted by US (USERS). Also the account (witch will require some kind of Paypal service) should have it's own website where the proposed actions are seen and voted only by the users and where each action has the expenses tag attatched. All of this will require minimum amount of money or energy.... if only we realy want to help this poor world. How about it ? Give me your input to these ideas so we can organize ourselfs. If we let only the big corportations to "do the work" we will see little effect all the time. So? |
