Review This Blog and I’ll Give Cancer Charities $10!

Simon — Thu, 02 Jul 2009 13:48:24 +0000

I need your help! Last year I raised over $1,000 for Cancer Research Charities, and this year I’d like to raise more funds.

You see, I became a cancer survivor myself last year – so I am grateful to these charities for all their hard (and often un-noticed) work; please help me help other people survive this disease too by taking just a few moments to write your own review of my blog on Technorati .

For every review written about this blog, I will donate $10 to Cancer Research charities on your behalf.

How To Contribute

It’s quite simple, and takes only a few minutes.

You can add your review by going to this page on the Technorati site: http://technorati.com/blogs/www.simonstapleton.com/wordpress

Add your review into the box (see image right) by typing a title for your review and then your thoughts about my blog in the Body section.

And please don’t forget to choose the Twitter This option too!

If you don’t have a Technorati login then you will be prompted to set one up which takes a matter of seconds.

The Money Raised

I will send the funds raised on the first day of each month to the Association for International Cancer Research (www.aicr.org.uk)

Please Help

Charities suffer big time during recession. Donations to charities are often the first things cut when household income comes under strain. Let me source the funds – all you need to do is write a review!

MANY THANKS in ADVANCE

Almost a month ago I launched The SimonStapleton.com Cancer Charity Fundraiser . I should have done this before now but I thought you might like to know how much money has been raised so far.

The Current Total is $625.50!

Over $500 has been raised through direct donations to the charities. I am so grateful to everyone who has taken part and helped promote the fundraiser.

Particular thanks go to:

Mark McClure for his donations and his support in raising awareness on his blog
Drew Douglass also for his support and encouragement, and raising the profile of this cause on his blog
Colleen Thorpe for her donation of $150
Steve May for his donation of $250

I am just less than $400 from my target of $1,000. Remember, you can help by:

Direct donations to your local Cancer Research charity – just let me know how much you donated
