That’s a great question. Obviously this project is bigger than any one–or two or a dozen–individuals can manage. Beyond that, we want to offer as many folks as possible the opportunity to contribute and participate.
Here are some areas in which we know we’ll have some needs:
Logistics
We need people to ride with Rich for a few days at a time. We also need help with SAG duties along the route.
Speaking Contacts
Do you know someone in a city along the route? How about helping us make a contact and arrange an event at a church, community service group, or school?
Fundraising
Do you have a heart for CONVOY OF HOPE and their mission to feed needy children around the world? What if we could use this project to raise some insane sum–and have it matched by their corporate sponsors? Is it possible to support those needy children with food and education with the help of a fund raiser event? Have you ever felt like you can’t REALLY make a difference in such a huge issue as world hunger?
Perhaps this is an opportunity to change your mind. You can help several children that are deprived of basic necessities like food, shelter, and education. Helping these kids may instill a sense of satisfaction and joy in your heart as the saying goes “Happiness doesn’t result from what we get, but from what we give.”
Video
We need to produce some video footage for specific audiences.
Social Media
We need folks who love Facebook and Twitter and who’d like to help us spread the word about this project. Imagine tens of thousands of people around the world following and contributing–you could help make that happen.
