Toronto Works For Haiti Twitter #TW4H

We had our second meeting earlier tonight; it was great to see those of who could make it. We had the chance to move forward with some ideas and planning for the event in March now known as TW4H+Auction. Here is a short summary of what we touched on:

• Discussed ideas about reaching out to businesses and other potential buyers
• Looked at few potential venues and alternative days/dates for the event
• Discussed some PR regarding the event including reaching out to media and more e-newsletter features
• Divided up some tasks and came up with many new ones that need to be done
• Discussed having door prizes during the event as well as a catalogue featuring both the art pieces as well as the services our volunteers offer

We are working on finding a band. Please let us know if you know any band we can approach who may be willing to play during the event. We are also going to be looking for corporations that may donate gifts we can offer as door prizes.
We will probably have our third volunteer meeting next week; hopefully to touch base and discuss further ideas. In the mean time, please feel free to email us with any thoughts or suggestions, both on what is highlighted above or any other ideas. Every idea brings us one step closer to making the auction a great success. We are counting on all of you 

    I might know a band. My friend was going to play at my fundraiser, but our dates didn’t work. I can see if he’ll be available for yours. I’m sure he’ll be up for it; it’s just a matter of whether or not the dates work out!

    Thanks Karen. Keep us updated :-)

    I’m asking around. It’s much easier to secure an interested band if you’ve got a set date. Is it going to be March 17th 100% for sure, or should I simply say “should be March 17th, depending on the venue”?

    We are targeting March 6, the first Saturday of March. We are hoping to zero in the venue this weekend.

"Hi, I'm a medical doctor and researcher at University of Toronto. When I first heard about Toronto Works For Haiti, the idea just blew me away. Selflessly dedicating time and energy to help people in need is such a beautiful idea and a powerful image. It provides a much greater bond than donating money alone. On top of that, Toronto Works For Haiti delivers expert service with the warm feeling of doing the right thing. These are the reasons why I proudly support the excellent work of TW4H."

"I needed photos of myself for my business website and TW4H put me in touch with a great photographer. Elliot really put me at ease during the shoot and the result is photos that are probably the best photos I've ever had of myself. Thanks."
