Love it! But are we sure about the not sending money part? With the awareness comes requests to educate people on this. There is costs of paper, print, misc things at first. We could probably dish out of our pockets to get started. But, with others contributing then maybe we could afford to get newspaper adds in (U.S.A. Today, and ???). Think what a nice full page add could do for awareness. Our church took out a full page add in the UDSA Today and had great results with it. We could get a famous spokesman or at least a starving actor. If this is to go and work well we will need staffing to run it eventually. It won't go far without funding. Are we sure we want people to come here to this site to find out how to help?
Maybe we need a seperate site and/or page for public anouncement inquiries and one for our family support board. Of course they would be refered here but not everyone has internet access. We need a po box or something and/or an 800-number. Just some thoughts to ponder...
