Ten on Ten: New Advocate Fundraiser for NMO Research

NMO Advocate asks you to join “TEN on TEN” for NMO research.

Well, it may not be the ice bucket challenge, but if the NMO community takes part in a big way, we can raise real money for NMO research.

Let’s storm social media on October 10 for a one-day fundraiser for all of us!

On October 10, the 10th day of the 10th month, let’s ask our entire networks for $10 for The Guthy-Jackson Research Foundation.

TEN on TEN is a new fundraiser designed to include as much of the NMO community as possible with an easy ask – that on this one day, we can all help advance research to find a cure, by asking our family, friends, colleagues and social media contacts for $10.

As you all know, when people donate to The Guthy-Jackson Charitable Foundation, 100% of their contribution goes to research.

There are a few ways to proceed:

On October 10, put out a request on all of your social media platforms, including email, Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram and etc., and ask for $10 for NMO, with a link to the foundation: guthyjacksonfoundation.org/ten-on-ten

Use your own words to make the request. You might say something like, “Today, on the 10th day of the 10th month, please give $10 for NMO research (guthyjacksonfoundation.org/ten-on-ten). As you know, I (my daughter, my wife) was diagnosed with Neuromyelitis Optica (NMO) X years ago. You’ve seen me (her, him) cope with vision loss/paralysis/hospitalizations. You probably know that NMO is a rare disease, and as such, receives little research funding. Please help me find a cure!”

That’s all you need to do! Or, if you like, you can create your own TEN on TEN fundraiser on The Guthy-Jackson Charitable Foundation website: guthyjacksonfoundation.org/donate/fundraisers

A third way to participate would be to create a Facebook TEN on TEN fundraiser. Visit The Guthy-Jackson Charitable Foundation’s Facebook page to learn more.

Have fun with it, and let’s shower The Guthy-Jackson Charitable Foundation with tens of tens of $10 on the 10th day of the 10th month!

Any questions or concerns? Please contact me at diningfornmo@gmail.com.

Thank you!
