Alright ladies and gentlemen, the time has come to wrap up Matt and mines project for Funding the Fight!
I am excited to announce that we have raised a total of $1240 for the Canadian Cancer Society!
It has been an amazing journey raising money for something that Matt and I are so passionate about and have been overwhelmed with the amount of support we have received with our project.
I would like to send a huge thank you to everyone who has helped us with our project whether that be through donating, putting up posters, sharing our links on Facebook, retweeting our tweets on twitter, and of course, simply sharing our project by word of mouth.
This project has really put into perspective the importance of social media and the effects it can have on a project such as ours. Without social media such as Facebook, Twitter and our Go Get Funding web page, we would not have received as many donations as we did and would not have been able to reach out to as many people as we did.
It was also amazing to see people who we don’t even know reach out and support our cause. It truly is an indescribable feeling knowing that through social media people were willing to help us and donate their money even though we are complete strangers.
If I were to do a project such as this in the future, I would definitely use Go Get Funding again as a platform. However, I think it would be interesting to see if there would have been a greater response in regards to donations had we used a different web site such as Indiegogo, Kickstarter, GoFundMe or RocketHub.
Overall,this was by far the best experience I had ever had with a project and to experience something that was so rewarding made it even better.
We couldn’t have done this project and had it been such a success without everyone’s support and help!
THANK YOU!
