Week 3 Day1

Today was follow up day. I called the principal from a private girls High School, the campus minister and chair of another private school's Habitat for Humanity Club, and a principal from a private elementary. I had written letters to all 3 last week. The letters are being passed around to the appropriate people in each school! They did not hit the round file! I was even THANKED for a follow up call! Thanks for thinking of our school, one woman said!
I also did some calculations for still another private school principal, showing how 500 students becoming World Changers, contacting 5 alumni each, and those alum contacting 5 would generate over $78,000/month for the school from the 3 sources of income. I sent this to him in an email saying I would be calling him tomorrow. Sometimes you just gotta get to the bottom line quickly.

I also sent a letter to the local football boosters. the local HS won the state championships again this year. I'll be going to their monthly meeting in January, and I will follow up with the president on Friday. Right now, the football team sells cards for $20 with discounts for local pizza and sandwich shops as a fund raiser. I think the local merchant mall will sound very good to them!
I also called a woman referred to me by one of my husband's coworkers. Her son is also a police officer.Isent her an email with the MyPowerMall details last Friday. She will call me back tonight after her daycare closes.

Week 2 day 5

Today, I hopped on the kid's buses in the morning to give my card to each driver. I have a note attached that starts out 'Please read this, it's so important to people right here in Buxton', and goes on to explain the bootcamp. I followed up on yesterday's contacts, but got all voicemails, so I will try again Monday. I am taking Ginny's advice and moving on from the public schools. However, number one on my to-do list for Monday is to contact the boosters in this area. I will continue to pursue private schools. This is really a revolutionary concept that needs to be in the spotlight. My sons go to Cheverus High School. The school challenges the entire Cheverus community to seek the “greater good” and to embody this vision by becoming men and women for others. I have written letters to the principal and the faculty member in charge of their Habitat for Humanity Club. Follow up will be on Monday. I believe that when these school leaders realize that My PowerMall could provide perpetual, increasing funding for the school itself, local Habitat for Humanity, as well as enable each student to select his/her own charity to support, My PowerMall will soar.
One of the bootcampers said it well, maybe it was Herb, when he said to go to people who already have the spirit of giving.
