PropertyTalk Charity Initiative in 2008!

[donna]

Hi All,

PropertyTalk.com has a charity initiative this year. You may recall we held a Charity Auction for Child Cancer Foundation in Auckand a couple of years ago and it was a raging success - all up we raised $13,000 over the 2 hours.

We have thought about running another event - however time is not on our side this year so we have decided to provide your favourite charities with an opportunity to communicate on PropertyTalk.com.

We can provide charities with a banner on PropertyTalk - that can link through to their website and maybe specifically a donation page for special event.

PropertyTalk.com has always been committed to giving back and we believe this is a good way for us to do so this year - by assigning a dedicated banner placeholder to charities. (We will get one created).

What we need from you is the name and details of your favourite charity - then when we have a list we can poll a vote on which charities get online now. We can accommodate 5 charities immediately.

Cheers,

Donna

Somebody must have picked up on the vibes about Charity donations etc. I've just had a call from CanTeen wanting to know whether I wanted to make a donation/buy stuff from them.

Another name we could look at. Contact number 08002268336.

Yay! We'll wait for a few more to put forward their charities then we'll go with whomever responds (interestingly enough not all charities see the benefit - rather they just want your hard $$)

(just found this new smilie....thanks techies).

Cheers,

What about timing something for the Movember charity one of the PT members here has entered in again for 2008?
A banner promoting it for him?

[donna]

Good idea Whitt - if Brendan can send a 150 x 218 (w/h) banner to me = [email protected] I can get it loaded onto PropertyTalk.com.

Cheers,

Donna

Yay!

Yay! we have our first charity banner up on PropertyTalk.com and it is our very own PT user = Brendan. Brendan is growing a mo for movember.

Please support Brendan - the charities that benefit are depression and cancer and I guess that we all know someone that has or had either.

Cheers,

Donna
