US radio station WFAN’s radiothon has raised $127,000 in online donations
in under 30 hours. More than 1,100 people donated online, resulting in a 187% increase
over last year. WFAN’s consultants, [Changing Our World](http://www.changingourworld.com),
managed the online fundraising campaign, creating a viral e-mail thank you note 
for donors, reporting on totals throughout the 28.5 hours of the Radiothon, and 
gathering responses and comments from donors.

donations, send targeted e-mail appeals and measure the results, offer online event
registration and publish online directories.
