Carrie

Hi, I'm Carrie, a stroke survivor and bind member,

Kezia

and I'm Kezia a stroke survivor and a member of bind as well. And as the summer season approaches 2023. There's a lot happening here at the clubhouse, brain injury network. As bind waves hosts, Carrie and I, we really want to be able to share all the details to our listeners, uh, and keep you guys really updated.

Carrie

After today, we will begin our summer break and we will not be publishing any new episodes until August. But do not worry. This doesn't mean you won't see our presence on social media or our faces.

Kezia

We have a really good announcement and it's actually probably the most important announcement for BIND clubhouse, which is the current campaign. Which is the lemon aid our cause summer fundraising campaign. So I hope, I wonder if you guys are asking what that is. So the campaign will be actually run through June to help encourage donors to keep monthly reoccurring donations to BIND.

Carrie

And how maybe for wondering how this works. If a donor pledges, a recurring $25 a month. They will receive a shirt. If donors make a recurring $50 a month pledge, they will receive a tote bag and a shirt. And if the donor pledges a recurring $100 a month. They will receive a shirt. At tote bag and a tumbler.

Kezia

So why is BND doing that? So I really want to make sure that all of our listeners understand that the recurring monthly donations are actually real important to the nonprofit organization, brain injury network. It basically helps during the whole year in all of those really awkward moments of the month waiting for grants.

So there are months, if you guys do work with nonprofit organizations, I'm sure that you understand the time where it's like an ups and downs that you don't know if you're, when you're going to receive it, or you have a couple of months to wait for it. This is specifically important for those times throughout the whole year. So make sure to connect yourself to bind and donate for these recurring monthly donations the summer.

Obviously we use it during the summer of June, because it is so important for brain, um, brain health. To encourage the donors, we will be sharing our information for heat safety, hydration and brain health.

Carrie

And who, who is this campaign focused on? Well, it's focused towards our supporters. And donors and our listeners, like you.

Kezia

Where can you do this? So make sure that all of our donors can sign up to donate, again for the recurring monthly donations. On the website, which is www dot the bind dot org.

Carrie

And again, as we mentioned, we will still be around and we're going to try to be more active on Instagram. So, like I said, you'll still see our faces and you'll see our presence. So if you're not already following us on Instagram, please do so know now. And again, that's at bind waves.

Kezia

We are very excited to see that bind waves, our Instagram account has actually gained a lot more of attention. Our Instagram account has actually been able to reach out, to 406 different Instagram accounts, which is super exciting because we actually have had our Instagram for only about a month after one year anniversary. So that was really good and super exciting.

Carrie

So during our summer break, we're going to continue on that attraction and we will be posting reels. We are looking forward to those numbers being even bigger. The reels will be behind the scenes of all this fun stuff we do here. Like the bloopers you don't get to see. Um, short clips of previous episodes that maybe you've missed. As well as any important information that our supporters and our donors may need, so you don't miss us and keep up with us.

Kezia

Through Instagram, we're actually also going to be doing some pretty cool stuff. We're going to be introducing our new bind waves team members. And actually their roles on how they're making this thing happen on a weekly basis. So we're excited about that for you guys to meet more people other than Carrie and I. Uh, nonstop. So we're really good and excited to do that.

Um, so also including that, because also to introduce all of you to the work order day and how that happens here at the clubhouse of bind. So have a fantastic and awesome and fun summer!

Carrie

And we'll be back, live in August.
