Side-Line trades charity dollars for Facebook friends
Industrial magazine Side-Line has announced that they will henceforth donate to the Plan Belgium charity one dollar per new friend to their Facebook page. "At the moment of starting the campaign, Side-Line counted 2202 friends, and two days later the counter is now at 2764 and still going up," says Bernard Van Isacker of Side-Line.
Plan Belgium, a subsidiary of Plan International, sponsors third world children, helping them financially, educationally and medically. Side-Line will be using their charity money to sponsor a young South American girl.
Side-Line continues to push for more Facebook friends in this campaign. "878 dollar is just sufficient to support this child for a bit less than two years. The aim for the magazine is to support her during her entire youth, hence why Side-Line will continue this action," says Van Isacker. Side-Line predicts needing at least $3,000 more to continually support this girl.
Side-Line will regularly post updates regarding their sponsored child. Follow the links to add Side-Line as a Facebook friend.
