Plea to help Les Bourgs Hospice

The following plea was sent to me from one of my clients.  As it is for such a good cause I have decided to post this to my blog.

This is a plea to help find Guernsey based volunteers to create and run a fun, short-term, Connie-themed Facebook page for the forthcoming Cash Cow Carton appeal for the rebuild of Les Bourgs Hospice.  I know you may not be interested in helping to run a Facebook page personally, but am simply asking if you could find two minutes to have a quick read and think about forwarding it even further (in Guernsey) - including to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) teams/managers if applicable.

A team of us  - including our wonderful key sponsors the GPO, the Guernsey Dairy, NatWest and G4S - are running a fundraising appeal for the rebuild of the new Les Bourgs Hospice.   The Cash Cow Carton launches w/commencing Jan 30th Jan when all 25,500 households on the island will receive a Connie-themed, flat-packed 1/2 Litre milk carton with the post - along with a plea to fill it with loose change and return to any NatWest or GPO Branch within the next 6 months.

We’re putting together a Facebook team to keep Connie’s page creative, funny and lively and really encourage followers and engagement …..all with the goal of increasing filled carton return rates!

The commitment would be a couple of team meetings and up to about an hour a day for 2 separate weeks during the 6 month campaign.

If you know of anyone who is: 

• a really keen Facebook user
• funny/creative/lively and a team player
• reliable - and will do what they commit to
• intelligent and discerning re appropriate content for all age groups and
• would enjoy helping the Hospice

We’d love to hear from them!  Please could you forward this message onto them and ask them to contact Caleb (czunino@guernseypost.com).

If you don’t know anyone who fits the above - but are willing to forward onto other contacts or CSR teams we’d be equally grateful!

Thanks so much for reading, for forwarding  - or for any help you may be able to offer.

HAPPY CHRISTMAS!
