Donor Information Toys for Tots Toysfortots

I can't speak for the US, but it took me a three minute form online. I pretty much only did it as part of my provisional drivers licence application. Just a few boxes aaking if I want to after this statement:Over 44,000 people die in traffic accidents from injuries that could be treated by donor organs. Would you like to join the NHS Scotland Donor Registry?Just shrugged, ticked yet, and that was it. Not the most cheery thing to read when applying for your licence online, but it was there.

Making a custom location on Instagram is actually quite easy and gives you an advantage to other businesses because it allows you to drive traffic via location.First off, Facebook owns Instagram; therefore, any location listed on Facebook also appears on Instagram. So you are going to need to create a business location on Facebook.So let’s dive into how to create a business location on Instagram.Make sure that you have enabled location services through the Facebook App or in your phone settings. If you are using an iPhone, select “Settings” → “Account Settings” → “Location” → “While Using The App”You need to create a Facebook check-in status. You do this by making a status and type the name of what you want your location to be called. For example “Growth Hustlers HQ”. Scroll to the bottom of the options and select “Add Custom Location” then tap on it!Now that you’ve created a custom location you need to describe it. It will ask you to choose which category describes your location, which you will answer “Business”.After choosing a category Facebook will ask you to choose a location. You can either choose “I’m currently here” or you can search for a location that you want to create for your business.Finally, publish your status. Congratulations! You have just created a custom location to be used on Facebook and Instagram.Now you are able to tag your business or a custom location on Instagram.If you have any questions about Social Media Marketing for businesses feel free to check out GrowthHustlers.com where you can find tons of resources about growing your Instagram following.

At a high-level, my advice would be to make the effort as personal as possible so that it resonates with your immediate network of friends and family.  There are two ways of doing that, 1) tell a passionate and compelling story about why you care to fundraise in the first place and how others can help, and 2) bring people together (online or off) on behalf of your effort so they can see/feel/experience your passion for the cause.  Both will lead to more contributions. Here are a few ideas for you that you could incorporate into your fundraising efforts: Face a Personal Challenge. Commit to doing something challenging (running a marathon, sky diving, quit smoking, etc.), then set up a fundraising page (or incorporate into one you already have) and ask your friends and family to pledge donations if you accomplish your challenge.Give up your birthday or other holiday like Christmas. Set up a fundraising page and ask your friends and family for donations instead of presents.Host an art auction. Get your artist friends to donate one piece of art each, and then host an art show somewhere and auction each piece off. Proceeds go to the cause.Host a fundraising event at a bar (if you're 21). Even if you have a small network of immediate friends, this tactic only requires a partnership with a bar on an already popular night (aka, they provide the crowd).  The trick is convincing them that they should give a portion of the door or a drink special to the worthy cause. Another approach is to find an alcohol sponsor first, and have them donate the liquor so the proceeds can go towards your goal.Partner with a restaurant, coffee shop, etc. Similar to the bar concept, convince a restaurant to donate a portion of proceeds for the day to the cause.Get local businesses to match donations. One way you can get businesses involved is to get them to match personal donations to your campaigns up to a certain limit.  Sometimes they prefer to make donations this way, because it limits the risk on their end (they don't have to go first with a big donation), and it gives them more exposure because you're likely to promote to people that X company is matching donations during a period of time up to X amount.Here's a link for even more tips on how to see success with personal fundraising for a cause:http://www.stayclassy.org/fundra...__ Hope this answer was helpful!More on this and other topics at:http://www.stayclassy.org/bloghttp://www.scotchisholm.com

There are many (many) reasons - so I'll list a few of the ones that I can think of off-hand.Here in the U.S. - we have a multi-party system: Provider-Payer-Patient (unlike other countries that have either a single payer - or universal coverage - or both). Given all the competing interests - at various times - incentives are often mis-aligned around the sharing of actual patient dataThose mis-aligned incentives have not, historically, focused on patient-centered solutions.  That's starting to change - but slowly - and only fairly recently.Small practices are the proverbial "last mile" in healthcare - so many are still paper basedThere are still tens/hundreds of thousands of small practices (1-9 docs) - and a lot of healthcare is still delivered through the small practice demographicThere are many types of specialties - and practice types - and they have different needs around patient data (an optometrist's needs are different from a dentist - which is different from a cardiologist)Both sides of the equation - doctors and patients - are very mobile (we move, change employers - doctors move, change practices) - and there is no "centralized" data store with each persons digitized health information.As we move and age - and unless we have a chronic condition - our health data can become relatively obsolete - fairly quickly (lab results from a year ago are of limited use today)Most of us (in terms of the population as a whole) are only infrequent users of the healthcare system more broadly (cold, flu, stomach, UTI etc....). In other words, we're pretty healthy, so issues around healthcare (and it's use) is a lower priorityThere is a signNow loss of productivity when a practice moves from paper to electronic health records (thus the government "stimulus" funding - which is working - but still a long way to go)The penalties for PHI data bsignNow under HIPAA are signNow - so there has been a reluctance/fear to rely on electronic data.  This is also why the vast majority of data bsignNowes are paper-based (typically USPS)This is why solutions like Google Health - and Revolution Health before them - failed - and closed completely (as in please remove your data - the service will no longer be available)All of which are contributing factors to why the U.S. Healthcare System looks like this:===============Chart Source: Mary Meeker - USA, Inc.

Make it compellingQuickly and clearly make these points:Who you are and why you are doing thisHow long it takesWhats in it for me -- why should someone help you by completing the surveyExample: "Please spend 3 minutes helping me make it easier to learn Mathematics.

Thank you SO MUCH for helping."Make it convenientKeep it shortShow up at the right place and time -- when people have the time and inclination to help. For example, when students are planning their schedules. Reward participationOffer gift cards, eBooks, study tips, or some other incentive for helping.Test and refineTest out different offers and even different question wording and ordering to learn which has the best response rate, then send more invitations to the offer with the highest response rate.Reward referralsIf offering a reward, increase it for referrals.
