More about the Fashion Challenge

Thank you to everyone who came to the Fashion Challenge Launch in Melbourne on 7 March.  It was a wonderful event - although I am sorry I didn't get to chat to anyone. 

FFW continues to work towards raising funds during March through the Fashion Challenge.  This is a big event for us so I have committed to spreading the word. 

Should you wish to hold a Fashion Challenge event in your workplace, home ... park... whatever, FFW have supplied the following 'helpful hints' to get you started:

1. Decide on your team Fashion Challenge with your co-workers, family and friends... wear stripes with spots, wear an outrageous hat or stockings (or crazy ties or socks for men), wear orange, red or black from head to toe for a day - whatever it takes to have FUN and get people asking what you're up to!
2. Register your team at www.fashionchallenge.org (click on Start Fundraising to go to the Gofundraise website and click on 'sign up now' next to the green 'login' button)
3. Once you've registered your team, send the link to your Team Fashion Challenge page to the team so they can spread the word...
   If they don't know about Fitted for Work and how we make a difference to disadvantaged women, send them Angela's story http://www.evotest.net/sales/SecondLives_FFWMaster.html
4. Read the Top Ten Tips for fundraising attached for more ideas and send it on to your team challengers...ask the boss to match what your team raises, post it on your facebook page, twitter it...
5. Host a morning tea, lunch or after work drinks on 1 April and have a fashion parade. Give prizes for the most funds raised by a team member and the best dressed! Whatever you do, make it FUN....

The team at Fitted for Work are here to help! As am I... as always. I have a couple of fabulous invitations and posters for FFW, so if you would like them, please just let me know & I'll email.

It is 11:22pm as I write this ... and I'm so tired, I can't even motivate myself to walk into the bedroom to go to bed.  I am beyond exhausted just at the moment.  I have so much I would like to blog about... but we're all going to have to wait until tomorrow.

In the meantime, stay well & keep the people of Japan in your thoughts, prayers, musings and meditations.
