Organise a card campaign for a sick friend

Set up a campaign to send cards to a sick friend

I got this inspiration from Yamina Krossa, an amazing woman!

When she had breast cancer, a lot of  friends asked her how they could  be of help. Yamina didn’t have the energy for small talk or visits. So her answer always was “Send me a postcard with a kind or funny  message”.

And that’s what people did. She received more than 150 cards, a living room wall full of support, jokes, friendship, … a wall that made her smile in a difficult time.

Tip for today
Start a postcard campaign for someone who is seriously ill or who has a difficult time.

Who is Yamina Krossa? 

Yamina founded the non-profit organization BENETIET to advocate for full reimbursement of breast reconstructions. She is co-founder of the VUB-Yamina Krossa Fund which raises money for groundbreaking cancer research.

She gives lectures and is the author of the book Let your net-work; InnerCrowdfunding.  You can buy this book on www.innercrowdfunding.be or send her an email directly (yamina.krossa@telenet.be), you will receive a signed copy!
