Beth Kanter is a technology trainer for non-profit organizations. Online, she
blogs at Beth’s Blog. She experiments with all types of social media tools.
Things like Facebook, FriendFeed, Flickr, Qik, etc.
Today Beth is going to talk about how she has raised money to support
disadvantaged children in Cambodia.
1. Make it Personal - When you talk about your cause, you make it very
personal. Beth has adopted two children from Cambodia. However, there are kids
in Cambodia who don’t have adoptive parents, and some are even considered the
head of their household, due to not having parents.
2. Stories - Tell stories about the kids and the impact that the
foundation she was working with was having on the children. Also share stories
about what she learned doing the work, as it was unfolding.
3. Three Rs of Network Weaving- Relationship building, Rewards, and
Reciprocity.. Putting that into action, Beth told stories about the t-shirts
that she was able to get as part of her fundraising efforts. She blogged about
the issues, and she continued interweaving those relationships that she was
building.
4. Fun, Humor, Easy, Passion - Beth’s birthday was during the campaign,
and she used Facebook to ask her friends to donate $10 to the cause. She also
made a series of videos with her kids to attempt to solicit her network. That
got others to solicit their networks.
5. In the middle of the campaign, Beth just continued blogging and
sharing about the campaign using the different networks and tools at her
disposal. She tried to focus on people that had larger networks, counting on
the compounding effect.
Beth than put out a challenge - can we get 250 people to donate $10 to send
someone to college? I have sent the link out to my Twitter network, and I am
putting it here now. If you have $10 (or $5, or even $1) to help someone less
fortunate than you, please go here: Beth Kanter’s call to action

Bury Chau, the woman who talked near the end of the clip, apparently
in an interview by the film crew, is light-skinned & thus perhaps
looks like a Vietnamese. She must be a "disguised" Vietnamese, don't
you think??
