Ok, so we finally got the registration page up and running, we're taking donations and registrations for men to get out and walk in red high heels in support of women - marching against rape, dating violence, domestic violence, etc.
We are affiliated with the Walk A Mile In Her Shoes foundation, located here.
You can view more information about our organization in the previous thread I posted here.
We're taking official registration, and I hereby formally extend the challenge to our membership to stand up and step forward in support. I have committed to paying the registration fee and shoe rental for any and every member who wishes to come up to Bartlesville and participate!
The organization we've partnered with for registration is Crowdrise, and our registration page is here:
SAFE-NOW on Crowdrise
I have started a team for OSA members to both register for the walk and to donate if you choose to do so. If you want to register, I will send you the registration fee back out of my pocket either via PayPal or a cashier's check or something, just let me know how you'd prefer it.
The promo video is here on our website (www.oksafenow.org) as well as the Crowdrise page, and here:
I would encourage each and every one of you guys on the site to come out and march! We are striving to bring attention to this issue and fund our organization, which provides SANE forensic exams and support to victims of sexual assault, rape, domestic violence, child sexual abuse, etc.
Many people criticize others who claim to support a cause or back a certain stance, but don't really do anything personal to show that - this is our chance! Stand up in support of women and services for women everywhere who are victims of these horrible crimes! Help us raise awareness and continue to provide these services!
I'm putting my own money where my mouth is... if we get 10 OSA'ers out walking, I'll pay the $250 out of my pocket. If we get 100, I'll pay $2500.00! I'm not kidding! Help me get this done, and let's help make this event a success we can point to as proof that we (OSA, firearms enthusiasts, whatever) are REAL MEN, and we support a society that takes care of women.
I understand if you can't make the walk, so I'd also encourage you to donate if you can spare a few dollars, any amount helps, truly. Our nurses are on call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, for $1/hour. It's tough to keep things running and we lost 50% of our donated funding this year, forcing us to go out fundraising for the first time. It's a learning curve.
Also, please PLEASE share our video and Crowdrise page on social media! Twitter, Facebook and all the others, get the word out, share it with everyone!
Thanks to all of you, and I hope to see you ALL THERE!
