Letters to Wilson....: You can donate a ball -- FOR FREE!

Hey, Wilson,
This time the letter is directed to our readership:
One of America's leading corporations is footing the bill for your donation of a One World Futbol! You won't pay a cent.

Why is GM doing this?

Here's how it works: A person clicks on three Internet links that take them to the donation page, and General Motors Corporation buys the ball. Why GM? Because Chevrolet, a branch of GM, is a founding sponsor of the One World Futbol Project. (a.k.a. One World Play Project)

What a great surprise!

My personal plea to you:

Because this doesn't cost you anything, for the first time I am asking you and anyone you share this with to go through the process of donating a One World Futbol. Please do this!

One World Play Project is bringing girls in traditional societies to the game.

I'm optimistic that you will help me on this. Last night, after learning about GM's program, I posted a notice on my Facebook page. When I woke up early this morning, four friends had already made a donation, and they are spreading the word.

Here's how this works:

1. Click www.gmsustainability.com/home.html
2. Click "Help Us Maximize our Impact" bar on the right margin of the page that opens.
3. On the next page, click "Donate a Soccer Ball" and then you're done!

It's that simple.

Multiplying your impact

Here's something I want to say to all the readers who are receiving this: Throughout the Wilson campaign, I told you about the program to raise soccer balls for impoverished communities and how to make donations, but I never directly asked you to spend money. And what you showed me was that, when you saw something as worthwhile as this, you didn't have to be asked. You self-initiated, purchasing for donation more than 100 balls.

Now, because it is so easy to make another donation,I'm asking you to act now, before life's little distractions redirect your attention. Donating is effortless--and FREE.

If all of you make this free donation and share this with your friends, we may very well double the impact the Wilson campaign has already had--you will have multiplied your impact without any outlay.

Obviously, as you participate, you will see GM's public relations message about sustainability. It's pretty low-key and you can brush right past it. (But on the donor page there's a video about the One World Futbol that you might enjoy watching.)

For all of those readers who jump on this -- I consider this a personal favor. Thank you.

Love,
Robert, Jean Baptiste (and, Blue and Wilson)
