heyup uu!!
we're always hearing of deach and other ukers amazing generosity, and over all, the ukulele community is incredibly generous and i'm incredibly proud to be part of it.
so here's what i was thinking. lets put all this generosity in one place for 2010. i want to create a campaign called the spreading the ukulelelove campaign.
this comes after an internet campaign showed how power in numbers can achieve such amazing things over here in the uk. the US may of heard of this. over here in the uk, us public were fed up x-factor always winning the christmas number one spot. so, a facebook campaign was created and consequently, a rage against the machine song was launched to number one. i thought, lets do this and put it to a good cause.
so here's the plan. i want to gather the whole ukulele community together across all sites and all continents and ask for a single dollar from any willing to do so. due to the size and generosity of the community, i feel through this we can raise a great amount of money. Then, we agree on a charity, i suggest a childrens charity seeing as the ukes will be most welcome here and we donate ukuleles to this charity that we've purchased using the money raised.
so, what do you guys think? do you think we can unite under one cause and create an amazing amount of ukulele love?
anyone got any schools or charities that would be good to aim for?
cheers gents and ladygents
