Hurricane Sandy Fundraiser Blog Style! I’m Selling Ad Space to Help #Sandy Families!

November 3, 2012 By Emily 18 Comments

 

You may remember a while ago I participated in a blog fundraiser selling ad space to benefit Joplin MO families who had lost everything in the tornadoes.  Well, I feel like I have been called to do it again, this time for the families hit hardest by Hurricane Sandy!

How it will work:

I will be selling two levels of sponsorship on my blog.

1. $50 will get you:

  • 1 month ad space (200×200) on my sidebar
  • a spot in the Sandy Sponsor Spotlight post sharing 2 links!

This is a great way to not only give back to those who need it most, but also get your business or blog seen by thousands.

2. $25 will get YOUR CHOICE of

  • a mention in the Sandy Sponsor Spotlight post with 1 link to your business or blog.
  • a smaller ad space (200×125)on my sidebar for one month.

This is also a great way to get your name out there, and allows more people to be involved.

Please email me at familyandlifeinlv(at)gmail(dot)com if you would like to get involved.  I will be accepting sponsors through November.  Because I am accepting donations for the whole month, I will be donating 100% of the donations to the red cross.  This will help Sandy families in the long term.

Get Involved On Your Own:

If you are looking for a more immediate way to get involved, as the families are really in need of non-perishable food, toiletries, baby items (formula, diapers, blankets), you can send items directly to these addresses.  I have heard that they are no longer accepting clothing.  I have also heard people are buying diapers and wipes directly on Amazon.com and shipping it to these addresses.

Thank you to @TheBabyGuyNYC for sharing these addresses on his Facebook page this morning.

I hope you will consider getting involved either on your own, or through adspace on my blog.

I love my blog/readers, and have been blessed to grow a community that I know will help give back to those who really need it right now.
