#NYOH UPDATE

NEW YEAR OF HOPE GIVEAWAY UPDATE #6

 

Angels do find us in our hour of need. -- Amy Huffman

What is New Year of Hope ?

New Year of Hope is the "heart child" of Twitter's @blogomomma and @spreadingJoy joining forces to reach out to those in need through the power of social media. 

A new age digital ministry raising funds for basic housing or basic needs, providing coaching and encouragement for a self help approach to an improved lifestyle, making connections for vital resources, and sometimes just a shoulder to lean on.  Our approach is to impact and change a life so that each recipient can be a blessing to the next.  Building a community of paying it forward one person at a time.  

New Year Of Hope launched only 45 short days ago in a campaign to make a difference in the new year.   Our current campaign recipient is a divorced father of one, hearing impaired, who was facing eviction right at the new year.  Literally the face of today's working poor.  You can read more under "Is it a Wonderful Life?".

Through the efforts of Marie Wikle of Spreading Joy Corp a (501(c)(3) nonprofit ) (@spreadingJoy on Twitter) she was able to negotiate terms that would allow us to campaign to cover the debt in exchange for reversing the eviction.  Exciting!

Don't forget this is ALSO a contest.  The tweeter who helps us reach the most people will win a $100 gift card!  Click here for contest deets.  The contest ends when we reach our goal.

How much more to go?  $ 1529.00

Would you prayerfully consider partnering with us?  See who already has!

#NYOH UPDATE!!

NEW YEAR OF HOPE GIVEAWAY UPDATE #NYOH

We are on the cusp of the New Year - WHAT a way to ring in 2010 with the birth of #NYOH !!!  God is really moving on this new ministry and I'm super excited to report some GREAT news!

#NYOH liaison and co-collaborator, Marie Wikle  (founder of Spreading Joy Corp) - spoke with Dwayne's landlord.  Remember!  This eviction was to take place Jan 1 !

Marie was able to negotiate a gift of time.  He agreed to let Dwayne stay, on the condition that we continue to raise the funds needed.  In addition Marie was able to negotiate a small reduction in the monthly rent!  YES!  This was a major victory as #NYOH is about a hand up and Spreading Joy.  Giving someone a chance to rise above their current situation.  It gets better!  Because an anonymous miracle donor gave $1000, Marie will be able to process an initial good faith payment to the landlord to solidify the negotiation!  We love us some Marie Wikle!!  Thank you VERY VERY much to that precious soul for the gift !

That was an extraordinary gift but we recognize not everyone can do that. We are THANKFUL for EVERY gift of time, money, and talent.  We're glad to have you ALL on the #NYOH team!

 

#NYOH METER

As of today donations are somewhere in excess of $1300 total

According to tweetreach (results vary throughout the day) we are reaching an average of 1200 people / tweet and making an average of 3900 impressions (exposure) each time.   It's all analytics to me! ROFL

We're off to a GREAT start but we need to keep up the momentum - will you help us?
