Howard Lake | 30 January 2015 | News
Fundraising platform everydayhero is marking Valentine’s Day next month by inviting the public to show their love for their favourite charities using social media, and win a cash prize for their charity.
Blackbaud’s peer-to-peer fundraising platform’s #ilovebeCAUSE campaign will give three prizes to the winning entries, worth £1,750, £500 and £250.
To enter the competition you simply have to post a picture of themselves to Facebook, Twitter or Instagram, showing you holding a poster that reads ‘I love [charity name] beCAUSE [reason why you love them]’. The winners will be those judged to be the “most authentic, creative and heartfelt”.
Entries tagged with the #ilovebeCAUSE hashtag will appear dynamically on the everydayhero Wall of Love, “a beautiful online space designed to visually curate the outpouring of love across social networks that people have for their favourite causes”.
