Day 49, €25.957, third concert!


Good morning!

Did you know that on 26 of the initiative over 6,000 € of revenue? Did you know that last week we raised more than € 6,000? What took 26 days to raise now we have raised in one week! Is not it amazing?


On the team there are many people who had helped before to other causes, but in my case, this is the first time. I discovered two things that have fascinated me. The first is the sheer number of people (thousands) who want to help, who turn completely, and that they are happy doing it, and make others happy. It's a virtuous circle of happiness! And it is beautiful.
And the second is that a huge number of people (thousands as well) is taking that first step (like me) to solidarity with the people who is suffering, and that is priceless. People with their bit help to build castles and mountains. I'm very glad I've started this, and  I feel very happy that things are changing thanks to each and every one of you/us. Thank you!  thank you very much!


What we need is your/ our help to let everyone to know us.

And of course, we have another very good news: another charity concert!another charity concert in Madrid!Will be on Thursday December 15 from 22:00 h to 01:00 h in Hall Caravan C / General Martinez Campos 17, underground Church. They will play severally for all 3 groups:

Day 48, €25.694, We are almost there...!



Hi!

We are really excited because we are about to meet the budget needed by one of the two projects that AMREF presented, a health care project in Turkana. That is, we will have the chance of giving them real help!!

Turkana is located to the northwest of Kenya and is a zone in a state of crisis and emergency, as you can see if you click on the first map shown.


The project still needs to cover 26.645€ from its budget. Once we get this quantity (very soon), we will ask you on Facebook. To read all the details about the project click on this link.

We recommend that you read this article from Raffaela Toticchi on RedXlaSalud.org (in Spanish), which has many links to different sources of information (testimonies, videos, official reports, etc) if you are interested in knowing better what is happening in the region.

You already know: donate 2€ and get 4 other people involved every week. You can tell it to your family and friends, say it on social networks, follow us on Facebook and Twitter... this is all we ask for!We are achieving something great!
 
Thanks a lot for keeping on helping!

Day 44, €21.061, Great team at Barcelona!


Gentileza de Marta Temprado
We are nearly halfway through our initiative! On Monday we asked on Facebook: what are we doing with our objectives? And the answer from an overwhelming majority of people, plus a comment on our blog said: Keep the original objectives! Sure we will! We're going for it!
Are you aware of what you have achieved in 44 days? We have gone from 4€ to 21.000€. Someone may think: then we will end up with 42.000€ (Warning!! Error!!). Networks grow exponentially! Another thing that may happen is that we add 4 zeros to the current figure and divide the result by 2: 105.000.000€! See how we can achieve it? The experience from the previous 44 days proves it. We still have plenty of time. We need you all!
What do you need to help? Willingness! Nothing else. Everything else would come along. In Barcelona there is a really enthusiastic working group who is doing incredible things! It's a long story, but the most important thing is that: They have organised another benefit concert!
Information about the concert (our Facebook events):
  • La Dulce JanePeyote and Amalthea are playing
  • Friday 16th December, from 22:00 to 00:30
  • Sala Underground
  • Tickets:10€ (5€ for the venue, 5€ for 90mn90d) one drink included
  • Other drinks: 7€ (5€ for the venue, 2€ for 90mn90d)
  • A drink is a spirit with mixer, or 2 soft drinks or 2 beers
Do you want to volunteer? Send an email to contact (at) 90mn90d.com or sign up for our forum (in Spanish) and post a message in your city or country. Limits don't exist, together we can achieve it!
¡The way in which people is getting involved for the humanitarian emergency in Africa is impressive! Now it's exciting, imagine how exciting it will be when they know!
Thanks a lot for helping us to be greater everyday!

Day 43


€90 millions… here we go! But to achieve so, our magic number needs to be changed: instead of each person managing to get 3 new people involved in the campaign each week (i.e. they donate money and they get other 3 people involved), what’s needed from now on is the recruitment of 4 people! C’mon! Can you remember what made us set this project up? ‘I heard about kids waiting in the entrance to camps being devoured alive by hyenas’. All of this can be prevented! 
Spreading the word through social media is not enough to reach everyone: let’s plaster the streets with posters (providing that it’s not illegal, of course!)!: the lift in your homebuilding, your car’s windows, a note board in your office or at your university, public spaces aimed at such purpose etc. Switch your printer on!
Apart from Thursday’s Gala, to be able to collect those €65.000 not only do we need an important mass medium to push us a bit, but also big firms to make employees know about us. Can you help us?

Longer one:



Thanks!!
