USF HerdFunder Project

[Ricky the Bull]

Here is a great video that stresses the importance of giving as part of a new fundraising effort by the university.  For those who don't give, please consider giving something.

A big thank you to those who have, or will be, supporting this initiative.

Every dollar helps!!

This video is spot-on. I'm sharing it with as many USF people as I have on my email lists, etc.

This is really cool way to go about fundraising.

Why donate through a for-profit website that takes a percentage off the top,  when you can send a check directly to USF with the entire amount going to the University?  The check also eliminates part of your donation going to a credit card company.

Ned, the site is USF Foundation, it is just made to look like other crowd funding sites.

How about simply convenience? And that's what I want to do. It's money in their pocket now as opposed to me going home and trying to find a check to deliver to them from Arizona. 

 This is a parade you don't need to rain on.

Action instead of words.

It's the 21st century,  ever hear of electronic checks?

What's it matter?  I don't even know my account number. Not convenient. Worked in top ten banks in country for 30 years.

You don't need to know your account number.  A few clicks on a smart phone, tablet, or pc/mac....done.

 

My phone is not so smart that it knows a checking account number I don't. You really should stop.  The time I've wasted with your silliness has cost me money I could donate to USF. 

Let's just try staying on topic. That too would better benefit USF.
