I wanted to quickly check in about the CASH fundraiser with some minor updates and announcements. (Nothing fancy, and I won’t try to skip out on a proper post later in the day. Promise.)
- On the whole it’s going really well so far. We’ve raised more attention than money, but both were goals from the start. I’m optimistic about the way it has unfolded so far, and there’s a real sense of momentum building on this end.
- We’ve gotten some nice coverage online, and I’d like to thank the following outlets: Magnet, Creative Commons, FMLY, Pitchfork, KEXP, Asthmatic Kitty, Kill Rock Stars, and Gold Robot. A nonprofit fundraiser isn’t always considered news but each mention makes a big difference. If I’ve missed anyone please drop a line in the comments.
- More people have started following our Facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/cashmusic.org) and our Twitter account (@cashmusic) — thank you for listening and spreading the word! Growing awareness on a friend-to-friend level is vital to us, so every time you tell someone you know about CASH Music it helps.
- We just launched our “thank you” mix on the CASH site. There are 12 tracks from artists I genuinely love and you can bet there will be a full post about the whole playlist here soon. But it’s a great mix, half of which can’t be found elsewhere right now. Check out the free stream, but I promise that a couple bucks for the 320k download is well worth the donation to a good cause.
- We’re adding new items to the raffle in the next few days. They’ll go up as they’re ready but expect a proper announcement sometime next week.
That’s all for now. Thanks for giving it a read.
