iPod Nano Giveaway Extended!

 Well, due to popular demand the iPod Nano contest has been extended until Wednesday, March 24. For those of you who do not know, I am giving away an iPod Nano. You can read all about why, and how here in this previous post. But here is an update on the numbers:

We only need 37 more sponsors until I will giveaway the iPod Nano.

Here are all the rules, and how you can win the iPod Nano.

The Rules:
(Read Carefully!!!)

1. I will not give away the iPod until at least 50 people have sponsored my sister (Molly) for $10.00 or more.
2. After 50 people have sponsored Molly then those 50 people and every sponsor after that will be entered into a raffle for the iPod Nano.
3. For each increment given by one person that person will receive another entry into the raffle. The increments are $10, $25, $50, $100, or more. So if you give $25 you will be entered twice for the raffle. If you give $50 you will be entered 3 times, $100 = 4 entries, etc.

So here is what you do:

1. Firstly, this contest ends at 2AM EST on Wednesday March 24. So all of the following steps need to be completed by this time. (I know, short notice, but I'm hoping we can raise a bunch of money).
2. Go to this link (http://www.calvarychristianky.org/HP/bowlarama10.htm) and click the "Donate" button and give an amount of $10.00 or more.
3. You will receive a payment confirmation email from PayPal. Forward this email to me at jkburns@gmail.com (This is just to prove that you actually gave money. Don't worry there is no information in the email that is harmful)
4. Tweet this: I just entered to win a iPod Nano & supported a school simultaneously. Follow instructions & RT to enter: http://bit.ly/dAtBqJ
5. Or if you don't have twitter then share it on facebook: I just entered to win a iPod Nano & supported a school simultaneously. Follow instructions & Share to enter: http://bit.ly/dAtBqJ 
6. Comment below with your twitter name, or add me as a friend on facebook http://facebook.com/jburns so that I can confirm that you completed step #4. 

And that is it. You are done. And when I have confirmed that at least 50 people have sponsored then I will enter everyone who sponsors into the raffle for the 8GB iPod Nano. So remember to share this on your facebook, and with all your friends because the more people that sponsor the quicker I will giveaway the iPod.


So how do you know this is legitimate? If you are still having doubts just go to this link Bowl-A-Rama and read about the fundraising event. 

So this is not just about the iPod, although it would be nice to win, it is also about supporting a school, and giving these students, including my sister, a great education.


Remember, this ends at 2AM on Wednesday morning March 24.

Support A School & Win A iPod Nano

Yes, I am really giving away a new 8GB iPod Nano, keep reading to find out why and how...

I attended and graduated from a christian school (Calvary Christian School) here in Covington, KY. I enjoyed my education, and am very thankful for what I learned in school, and more importantly the relationships that were built in school, with fellow classmates as well as teachers. I really felt like my teachers genuinely cared for me and my spiritual walk with God. I think this is what made my education unique and special.

I even enjoy coming back home from college and spending time at my school, watching basketball games, and visiting with my former teachers. Keeping up with those relationships is always refreshing, and a blessing.

But sometimes the downside to running a private school is the lack of money. Recently this has become a problem, so the school has started doing several fundraisers throughout the year.

The reason I am writing about this is to tell you about a fundraiser that my high school is hosting this weekend. It is called the "Bowl-A-Rama" and the students have been asked to recruit sponsors for this event. A sponsor can give $10, $25, $50, $100, or more if one wishes. All of the money that is given goes straight to Calvary Christian School and their Bridge The Difference campaign. Their goal is to raise $40,000 for this campaign, so that the school can just break even for this year.

But the question still remains, why am I writing about this? I am not even a student at the school anymore.

Well, my younger sister, Molly is a 7th grader at Calvary and she is trying to gain sponsors for this event. The grand prize for the most money raised by one student is a new Apple iPad. So I told her I would help her out, with hopes that she can win the iPad and maybe she'll let me use it if I'm lucky.

So here's the deal. I am giving away a brand spanking new Apple 8GB iPod Nano (Yes, this is the one that has a camera that records video) to a random sponsor. The winner can choose the color of the iPod and if you want anything engraved on the back.

The Rules:
(Read Carefully!!!)

1. I will not give away the iPod until at least 50 people have sponsored my sister (Molly) for $10.00 or more.
2. After 50 people have sponsored Molly then those 50 people and every sponsor after that will be entered into a raffle for the iPod Nano.
3. For each increment given by one person that person will receive another entry into the raffle. The increments are $10, $25, $50, $100, or more. So if you give $25 you will be entered twice for the raffle. If you give $50 you will be entered 3 times, $100 = 4 entries, etc.

So here is what you do:
