I have a friend that made a challenge to her friends on Wednesday.
She would match any donation made to a FEMA approved charity up to a total of $1000. By the end of the day on Thursday, she had met that $1000 matching donation, had another person donate an additional matching $1000 and yet another person donate to match the next $500 above her original challenge. And her $1000 had turned into $4000.
I can't make the same challenge (having not even started my new job, yet), but she has agreed to publicize any personal matching donations.
