Happy New Year!!!
Now we look ahead, a new year, new goals, new opportunities, new partnerships and LOTS of new birthdays to make happy.
I have a few very specific goals for each of you to start the year so take a peak and let me know if you have any questions.
#TBT
Throw Back Thursdays!
Thursday will be Throw Back Thursday! It is a widely known day and hashtag so we are hoping for some interaction. Our page will only grow and reach more people if followers are liking and commenting on posts so PLEASE DO SO!
Each of you needs to send me a Throw Back Thursday picture by next Friday January 15th. It can be you when you were little, at a party, in college (appropriate please:))), one of your kiddos, etc.
Supply Drives!!!
They can be done at your place of employment, your church, a local business, your doctor's office, the possibilities are endless!
Last hear I did one at my church and it was amazing! Michelle has done several supply drives but recently did one at a local coffee shop in Madison, WI. They not only collected lots of supplies but also made a business contact and gained some volunteers.
Our San Diego team has done a supply drive and collect lots of items!
I challenge each of you do to at least 1 supply drive this year!!! It is fun and easy, I promise!
Step 1: Decide when and where you will do the drive.
Step 2: Fill out the special event form and submit to Nicole.
Step 3: If you would like a graphic or flyer made to promote it please let Nicole know.
Step 4: PROMOTE!
Step 5: Collect items and make more birthdays happy!
