As you can see, we have a wide dispersal throughout the state, but we still need to translate that to 5,000 supporters on the website. Here is my to do list:
- Reach more sites along I-94 towards Eau Claire and east down by Janesville.
- After kit holders have some time to familiarize themselves with the kit, I will be e-mailing them to check their progress and suggest some locations/events that would be great for canvassing.
- Encourage, encourage, encourage! I want to keep excitement for the project high to keep kit holders motivated.
- Garner wisdom from all of you! If you were a volunteer, how would you want to be encouraged? What would motivate you?
After 6 days of "going live," we have 127 supporters signed up on makefarm2schoolhappen.org. A long way to go, but it's a great start!


The map is a great data visualization (geographic distribution speaks WAY louder than the 48 statistic)!
ReplyDeleteAs a volunteer, I ignore emails but respond to personal phone calls - especially if there is a friendly voice who is making is super easy for me to do something (I feel like how can I say no)... also helps when they're willing to answer any questions I have or talk me through things...
Looking forward to your learning about what moves these coalition leaders from kits to action!!!!!
