Beth’s Video
by Michael HoffmanThursday, November 16th, 2006
I have mentioned Beth Kanter in the last two blog posts, so I might as well add another one. I want to share with (both of) my readers Beth’s video and her fundraising project. Beth Kanter is a blogger and nonprofit consultant. She is on the Board of an organization called the Sharing Foundation. Beth is using all of the web tools at her disposal to raise some money for this group. Her goal is $750 by the end of the year. You can help her reach that goal by donating right now using this cool donation widget (allowing portable fundriasing like this) from ChipIn.
What I want to show you is the video Beth made about this effort. It is super simple and you should be inspired to do your own video from it. Using some home video, still photos and a voice over, Beth created a nice little video that has much more impact than if she just wrote about the subject. If you think video is out of your reach, you are wrong. Have a look.

[…] Day 6: $262 rasied (1 contributor) as of 10 a.m. PST. Another widget was placed on the second life blog. Beth also writes up a nice summery of her distributed fundraising experience so far. Michael Stein wrote an excellent article entitled “ChipIn: Online Fundraising’s Next Frontier” and references an excellent article written by Peter’s excellent guide on how to use ChipIn. Netsquared has two entries now on ChipIn, one by beth and the other by peter. Ok.. another posting by Britt Bravo at Blogher and see what’s out there. […]
