Starting Sept. 1, I am embarking on the Miracle Challenge to not only exercise every day for 27 days, but also to help kids at my Children’s Miracle Network Hospital. This important fundraiser will not only help me get fit, but also raise much-needed funds for kids in my community.

what is miracle challenge?

Miracle Challenge is a 27-day wellness challenge that encourages you to achieve fitness goals, while fundraising for kids in your Children’s Miracle Network Hospital. Over the course of 27 days I will accomplish 27 different mini-challenges all connected to my fitness passion. Along the way, it’s my goal to raise at least $10 per day on behalf of kids in my Children’s Miracle Network Hospital. Why? Because while we get fit, there are kids in our local CMN Hospital who can’t go for a walk, a run, or a bike ride. They are fighting scary illnesses like cancer, or recovering from an illness we can’t even pronounce. So let’s help them get better, so one day, they can join us on this fitness challenge!

support me but more importantly help kids too!

Please click SUPPORT ME at the bottom of this message and make a gift today. All donations are tax-deductible and collected securely by Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals.

I sincerely hope you will donate to my Miracle Challenge journey to help us Get Fit and Help Kids!

ANY AMOUNT HELPS!!! Thanks in advanced!

Facebook Adds Call now Action to Facebook Ads

Facebook has added a nifty feature that makes it easier for businesses to rationalize Facebook’s value in any marketing plan. Facebook’s ‘Call Now’ feature was created as an actionable ad on peoples news feeds. This will make it much easier to measure the volume of calls or leads that a given marketing campaign will produce.

Facebook is rumored to be testing a contact us form within the Facebook platform to make tracking ROI from Facebook ads even easier for local businesses.
