Blog Frog "Give the Gift of Community"

BlogFrog would like to inspire you to "Give the Gift of Community" to your blog readers and to The Children's Hospital! For every community that adds 20 new participants (someone who starts or replies to a discussion) between now and the end of the year, BlogFrog will donate $10 to The Children's Hospital. Also, all qualifying community owners will automatically be entered to win a $100 Target gift card.

Here's how to participate:

Install a BlogFrog community widget on your site (if you already have one, you are one step ahead!).
Make sure the widget is high enough to easily be seen by your visitors.
Announce your community to your readers in a post and tell them about the "Give the Gift of Community" challenge. For every community that adds 20 new participants (someone who has not participated in your community before and starts a discussion or replies to one) before the end of the year, BlogFrog will donate $10 to The Children's Hospital (up to $400)!
Spread the word about your new community by sharing discussions on Twitter and include the #blogfrog hashtag so other BlogFrog members can join and re-tweet.
Every community that adds at least 20 new participants during the campaign will be promoted in our next newsletter and on our website as "Blogs that gave the gift of Community".
No need to count new participants - we'll keep track of that!

That's all you have to do. We'll keep track of new participants and will be posting about progress in our community and on Twitter and Facebook.

For more information, button code, and questions see this discussion.

Thanks for your support and help!
