We know we’ve been a bit quiet on the blog this last week.
Why? Well it’s because we’ve been listening to you. Or as many of you as we can track down anyway…
For the last 3 weeks, a few of us from JG towers have been venturing outside the office, even outside London <gasp> to talk to you about your experience of using Justgiving.
So far, we’ve been to Norwich and Bristol and today we’re off to
Birmingham. It’s been brilliant to meet you and really interesting to
hear your feedback and ideas. We’ll be updating you again on all of
this very soon.
In the meantime, you’ve been pretty busy yourselves. Here’s a selection of just a few of the Justgiving pages that we’ve noticed:
Doug Harrison not only walked all the way from John O’Groats to Lands End, he also beat his fundraising target for Acorns Children’s Hospice Trust.
Myles Dyer (aka ‘vlogger’ Blade376) raised money for Unicef through his 24 hour live webcam chat, as part of Stickaid 2008. Read more about it here.
Ryan O’Sullivan and his fiancee Lisa are going to be climbing Mont Blanc on their honeymoon, in memory of their friend Nathan, to raise money for Skilltrain.
And of our more famous Justgivers, Sebastian Faulks has been padalling from Henley to Wargrave in aid of The Mood Foundation and Kevin Murphy is swimming the channel (again) to raise money for The MS Society.
Phew. Keep up the good work :)
