FAMU is pushing their fundraising hard on social media, should we be doing the same right now? I like how they provide an update on where they are in regards to achieving the goal.

We should be doing something as well. Who should we be contacting to help push something similar to this or find out what we are doing to help fundraise?

A 100 days to GHOE campaign will be beginning this month and one of the initiatives will be to get young alumni to donate $100 or more to the school, specifically Athletics/AAF.
You'll see the materials drop on social media soon as it's spearheaded by GHOE Do's and Dont's.

If only there was a way for young alumni to easily donate back to the school each month via an automatic deduction program.
Maybe donate a symbolic amount each month - like the year the school was founded - which would generate over $200 annually.
I dont know. I am just spitballing here ....

I gotta say that FAMU's AD is doing this quite well by utilizing CashApp and now HBCU Change |

I will try to do better myself to get the word out to other aggies and friends. No worries about that from me. I got a call last week about it. Plus, I was also thinking about starting a monthly donation via credit card of at least $100/month. With everything that's happening, it's the least I could do. Lastly, we should still be buying season tickets or just donating that money to the AAF or Athletics. |

Thrilla, that was a damn shame! Do we have different leadership there now or is it the same players as before? |

I honestly dont know. To this day I never got another callback after that meeting Dooms and I had.
But that $18.91 sure comes out of my bank account every month, like clockwork.

Technically, Blue Death Valley could "create" and promote a monthly $18.91 campaign unofficially. This entity could also promote the campaign on Social Media.

That is how Dooms, Freeze, myself and others have been able to donate $18.91 each month without even thinking about it. It is called the $18.91 Club. We had a ton of marketing plans to promote this program, but the university never maintained communication with us. Hell, I even reached out to several prominent alumni and got them on board to be Brand Ambassadors. But there's not much we can do if the university won't allow us to send money to their bank account. |
