ONE Story/Book Challenge
Weekly Challenge #8: ONE Story/Book!
Details: 10,000 points to the school with the best ONE story shared on Facebook.
Deadline: Midnight PST on Sunday, November 16th, 2008
There are two parts of this challenge: tell your ONE story, and use Facebook to share it.
First off, you’ve got to tell your story. You can use words, video, photos, any way you want to express yourself. Doesn’t have to be anything fancy or long. Just a couple lines would be enough to tell us why you care.
Did someone inspire you, maybe a parent, or a teacher? Is there a particular issue or program that matters most to you? Something in your education, religion, travels or background that drew you to ONE?
Once you’ve got your story, the next step is to share it on Facebook. Make sure you’re friends with Maisie Pigeon so she’ll be able to see it! You can use the “notes” function, or post a photo or video with a brief explanation. You can set up an event that tells your story and invite your Facebook friends to “attend” or maybe even share their stories, too. If you have an OCC Facebook group or page for your campus, go ahead and use that too. You can also share your story with other members on the ONE Facebook page.
Remember that just posting your story isn’t quite enough — we want you to actively share it, too. Just hit the “share” button and send it to your Facebook friends, or “tag” a bunch of people in your note to get their attention (and their friends’ attention too). We don’t want you to pester people, but do try to use the tools Facebook offers to share your story. If you’re not familiar with how to use Facebook, you can contact us and we’ll try to help you out.
Oh, and be sure to include the link to your campus page or general OCC sign-up page so you can get some new recruits out of this, too!
To report, just submit the link to your story on Facebook using our challenge reporting tool.
Look out for ONE stories from Maisie and me, as well as a few of our ONE interns, here on the OCC blog throughout the week. I hope you enjoy sharing your stories as much as I enjoyed sharing mine!
