Last Week to Help, Humiliate, AND Fundraise

With the economic slump, a lot of nonprofits are feeling the crunch, especially when it comes to travel and conference budgets. That's why our friends over at NTEN are reaching out to the community to pitch in for the scholarship fund to help up to 57 nonprofit folks attend the annual NTEN conference April 26-28.

NTEN has until Saturday, February 28 to make their goal of raising $10,000 and they have just a little over $2,500 to go. But should you need more incentive to pitch in, NTEN's executive director, Holly Ross, has upped the ante. As Robert has written about, Holly has pledged to do one of three humiliating tasks if NTEN is able to reach their scholarship goal. Convio is sweetening the deal still further by matching scholarship funds making your dollar go twice as far.

So if Holly is prepared to publicly sing, play an instrument, and/or eat quite the bacon recipe, isn't that worth taking a few minutes of your time to help a nonprofit colleague? Donate now and in the meantime, Holly will keep working on those dance moves.
