From June 20th and continuing through July 4th, BeatingDebt.org (BDO) will commence its “Independence Day Campaign.” As a new non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization, BDO is launching a campaign to raise awareness of the growing negative effects of personal debt, encourage individuals to commit to beating debt and then celebrate their independence from debt, and also to raise capital to help launch BDO’s new interactive website for educational purposes.
July 4th celebrates the United States’ independence from King George, who sought to over burden the fledgling colonies with taxes without representation. This 4th of July let us recognize the similar burdening debt load that is crushing Americans. Let us see the destructive effects of this burden and how it robs our freedom. Let us renew our commitment to beating this debt and run the financial marathon to eliminate this burden. Finally, let us celebrate with others that this 4th of July we decided to stop spending money we do not have so we can use our financial resources to beat debt instead of creating it. Commit today to paying down those debts and let us be encouraged on this 4th of July for a bright, debt free future.
The Independence Day Campaign will specifically consist of:
1) Directing users to BeatingDebt.org’s blog and forum to learn and interact with others about their experiences with debt.
2) Encouraging users to join the race of beating debt by posting their tangible goals of paying off debt.
3) Soliciting funds through direct mail.
4) Participating in local 4th of July active events like biking, walking, or running to raise awareness and funds for BDO using Active.com’s tools.
BeatingDebt.org is dedicated to educating individuals on the joy and freedom experienced from beating debt using Biblical principles. Hebrews 12:1 – Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.
