How I did it: We heard that team25.com (Sjon Podein's foundation) was bringing the cup to Minneapolis for a fundraiser, so we had to go. I'm so glad we did... not only did we get to see the cup, we got to kiss it!! Read how I did it…
How I did it: i went to the site, created an account, and chose an entrepreneur to support. their donation process is really easy. i also joined the 43things and twitter groups, which make donating a group experience. Read how I did it…
How I did it: i already had an account, so i just joined the 43things team on kiva.org. if you don't have an account, it's very easy to sign up and start lending with a minimum of $25. Read how I did it…
See all "How I Did It" stories...
this was going really well til the economy took a nosedive. i decided to commit most of my extra savings to my emergency fund instead of debt. i’m still paying it down regularly, just not in big chunks. once i accumulate enough in savings to not worry about what will happen if i lose my jobs, i’ll be back on it again.
my project is done… i just have to block it and it’s ready for the fair! now to research how to enter it… :)
