Hello lovely volunteers, I'm reaching out because we need YOUR help for this Thursday's Operation Save Abortion Telethon fundraiser! As a reminder, we are working with Abortion Care Network and Shout Your Abortion to raise $100,000 for independent clinics! In order to make this as successful as possible, we are asking folks to volunteer to drop messages of love all day throughout the fundraiser. Our comments are going to be full of trolls, and we need our friends to drown them out with positivity. DO NOT ENGAGE THE TROLLS. Just flood the comments every hour throughout the day with supportive language and emojis. Those comments might include things like: - Thank you, providers, for your tireless work!
- Abortion is essential!
- I love this! <guest> is amazing!
- Just donated!
- Keep up the great work!
- So grateful you are doing this.
- Reproductive care is healthcare!
- Clinic doctors and staff are heroes!
- Comments responding to whatever is happening onscreen at the time, e.g. quoting something Lizz or Amelia just said, applauding a guest's talent, laughing at their joke, etc.)
- PLEASE POST THE DONATION LINK IN YOUR COMMENTS OFTEN THROUGHOUT THE DAY: www.keepourclinics.org
It sounds small, but keeping a supportive atmosphere during our first time on an Instagram Live telethon is super important! If this is something you'd be down for while watching our incredible lineup of guests and events, you can sign up for 30-minute slots here. We are hoping to have five Love Message volunteers per half hour slot! Feel free to sign up for multiple spots if you'd like -- the telethon will be on the Abortion AF Instagram account ( @abortionfront) from 10 AM - 10 PM and we'll need all hands on deck. Let me know if you have any questions, comments, or suggestions around promoting the telethon and volunteering to be a Love Messager! We're so excited to be pushing forward with this fundraiser with the support of our amazing community. In solidarity, Anqa | |
