for President Harris in less than 24 hours. I in the past have offered to match contributions when I'm about to give. Routinely I have a few that contribute. On Sunday I went to FB and as a whole group was sad and mad. Some swearing off party.. I thought this was a teaching moment, asked people to breathe. I posted I might do something special. I knew I was gonna give money so why not challenge them. I offered to match $3 to $2 and asked if they thought we could raise a grand. I know in the grand scope of things that isn't much. However the fighting spirit came out. I made the offer Monday afternoon. When I opened FB this morning we had hit the magic number. My little FB group of good people in a bad area, Hillsdale County Mi. is ready to fight. If you are on social media try something like this before you give. It motivates people. At least that is my experience.
