We find people who need a hand, post their fundraiser, and put it in front of everybody we can reach.
Most people who need help never ask for it out loud. The ones who do are usually shouting into an empty room, and a good cause with no audience raises nothing.
None of us get anywhere alone. So we go find those causes, we put our name behind them, and we hand them the audience we have.
What this series is, how a cause gets picked up, and the two ways you can give.
Charlie is 13, an Honor Roll student and an Arkansas Hawks champion from a family working on a fixed income. Competitive basketball is the one thing they cannot cover.
A neighbor, a family, somebody one of us knows. Real people with a real need we can name.
We write it up and stand it up on GoFundMe so there is one clear place to give.
It goes out across the channel and every platform we are on, for as long as it takes.
Any amount, and every dollar goes to the cause it was raised for.
Both do the same work. Pick whichever one you can actually live with.
Your name shows up on the fundraiser, and other people see somebody already stepped up. That is often the thing that moves the next person to give.
Tick the anonymous box and the money lands exactly the same. The family gets helped and nobody ever knows it was you.
Every fundraiser we are carrying right now lives in one place. Open it, pick one, and give what you can.
