Hi Nick, Congratulations on your new song '4 Letter Word' great track! I wanted to let you know that I've just released my new video for my first single 'Give It Up' & if you get a chance to stop by & have a look, that would be greatly appreciated...it's just a bit of cheeky fun, I hope you enjoy it :)
I have been a fan of yours for quite some time now and love your music. It is amazing!! I am writing to ask you for some help and it doesn't take very much of your time. I am working with an amazing organization called Cross Cultural Solutions and we are going to be doing some volunteer work with an orphanage in Lima, Peru this Spring Break. This trip is costing $34,000!!!! We are trying very hard to fundraise the money and one of the ways we are fundraising is using a website called GoodSearch. It's a search engine just like google but is powered by Yahoo. Every Search that people do will earn our group a penny. It's paid by their advertisements and online retailers. I am asking you to please pass this information on to your fan base. I only know a limited people but I am trying to reach out to one of my favorite artisits. I hope you can help me out :)
If you want to post the info for the bulletin, you can write something like this:
Hey Everyone!!! Please support one of my fans who will be doing volunteer work with an orphanage in Peru this Spring Break. So he needs your help to fundraise the money which will be used to buy the materials for the orphanage that are going to be used (i.e. paper, pencils, teaching supplies in general). If you could please use this website:
Every single search you do online using this website will earn his group one penny. It is paid by the online advertisements and retail stores who use the site.
Its very simply and easy. You can see how much he has already fundraised and I hope that you can help him out. Thank you so much and God Bless.
