With momentum just starting to build after yesterday’s Blog For Relief Day, thanks to Hugh Hewitt, Glenn Reynolds, and N.Z. Bear Blog For Relief Day has now turned into Blog for Relief Weekend (Sept 3 – Sept. 5.) The goal is to get international bloggers and corporations to participate to multiply those donations exponentially.

But Deborah and I both agree that business owners who are our business coaching clients, members of the Business Owners Coaching Club, or subscribers to our blogs and Business Owner’s Journal can (and want to) do more.

So we’re issuign another $1,000 matching challenge for this weekend.

Our Second $1,000 challenge for Blog Relief Weekend:

If you make a donation to any disaster relief organization between today and 11:59 p.m. Hawaii time on September 5, we will match total donations up to $1,000.

To make this possible, all we ask you to do is take TWO simple steps:

#1. Just post a comment here with the amount of your donation, and to whom you made it

#2. Email us a copy of your receipt to: “relief.support@rpmsuccess.com”

UPDATE:

#3. Please log your contribution for tracking of a running total for Blog For Relief Day/Weekend

I will post the total donated on Sept. 6 and then match your contributions up to $1000. As with our previous $1,000 donation challenge, Deb and I will make our donation to Mission Harvest America, Inc. due to our personal interaction with them and their local connection with the areas impacted.

Two top-line organizations:

If you’re a fellow business blogger, then please post about this and urge your readers to contribute over the weekend.

Please keep the people of the Gulf Coast in your prayers.
