I recently wrote to you through Hawaiian Hope, seeing if your organization would like to participate in my Google Online Marketing Challenge project for my class at the University of Hawaii. I haven't heard from you and just wondered if you had received that email. I was hoping to hear from you before March 2, as that is my deadline from the professor. If you could please let me know if you are interested? We would love to work with your organization. Thanks so much!

Mahalo,

Ko Khounthasenh

At 8:47am on March 23, 2011, Tim Parsons said…: Hi Curtis, Thanks for the note. The project we'll be starting soon is called http://www.givingpod.com/ it started because of the lack of options food banks have for fund raising. It will eventually grow into other non-profits being able to use the platform but starting with food banks.

I went to the link you sent but it was dead. Please resend.

Mahalo,

Tim

You are Walking the Talk eh? You should post some info about this event on NHF (Nerdy, Healthy and Fit) group ;-) Yesss we want to know more!
