The Virtual Rally!

Posted September 2nd, 2014:

“The University of Orange Fundraising Committee has been working all summer on its first major undertaking, a crowdsourcing campaign on Indiegogo. Marketing expert Geanine Thompson suggested that we have an event in the last week of the campaign. This would be a focus for communicating to possible donors, and a good way to have fun. Long discussions of the event followed. Becky Doggett, who’s run many campaign rallies, said, “I wonder if we could have a VIRTUAL RALLY, so people wouldn’t actually have to come a place but could participate?” This led to the idea of webcasting a storytelling evening. We’ve asked each of the storytellers to recruit their friends to donate in their name — and we have prizes — one for the storyteller who gets the most donations and one for the best story — to be voted on by the people present and on the internet. That’s the story behind tonight’s “Hidden Treasures of Our Orange Storytelling Event” to be held today, September 2nd, 6-8 PM, at 580 Forest Street, Orange, and on the internet – the link will be posted later today. Tune in, donate, vote, and listen to stories that will make you laugh, cry and cheer!”

Stay tuned for videos of the video of the even to be posted!
