As Jordan Viator explains on the Connection Café blog: It’s no surprise that every other blog post you read these days talks about how to raise money, stretch funds and build supporters in the current economic climate. Donate Airline Miles. Airfare can be one of the pricier parts of getting to the NTC. That’s right.
So if you haven't donated yet, please do! Your gift will be matched by Convio dollar for dollar -- so your $10 donation magically becomes $20! . We've got a long list of scholarship applicants we want to bring to the NTC, and we need your help to do it. Avalon Consulting (extra props for the super sized donation!).
Every single person who donates to the scholarship fund is going to get one vote to decide my fate. Think of it as a double win for our community: Your donation sends more folks to the NTC and gives the gift of laughter to the entire community. Jordan Viator. Jordan Dossett. I did, in fact, just kick it up a notch!
With the $10,000 in matching funds from Convio (and the $395 we raised over our goal), we're going to be able to fund 58 scholarships to the 2009 NTC! Of course, that means Holly's going to embarrass herself in some fashion at the NTC (and I'm going to have to get a new haircut in May). Jordan Viator. John Merritt. John Kenyon.

After our initial announcement and Holly's birthday Facebook Cause push, almost 40 people had donated funds. Thousands of people already have.

The conversion rate of donations for US Fund for UNICEF on CNN.com is 0%, and it always will be.
We're still committed to sending as many people as possible to the NTC , so feel free to add to the tally and make a donation today. It also means that we won't be remaking the Muppets Bohemian Rhapsody video, but I'm betting that Beeker, Miss Piggy, Kermit and the gang will send a little love your way at the NTC, anyway.
Author: Jordan Viator. How likely is someone in Generation X going to donate to my organization? Though Gen Y is the least "giving" group, 56% actually donate to charitable causes. They are very scrutinizing of donations - Smallest cohort and shrinking - Less open to new appeals. What motivates them in the workplace?
