It has been a busy and eventful week. We are working hard, as I know many of you are, to help lift TLC out of its current predicament. Thank you all so much for the feedback, the great suggestions and the energy you are putting into helping us out.
This week we have been in meetings mostly. We have been looking at our strategy, our plans for the future and mostly we have been investigating ways to generate a greater awareness of TLC.
These blogs have proved to be a super way of sharing information really quickly, we are looking into other social media too but are very conscious of the stringent privacy laws regarding children in care and so we are handling this very delicately.
We are preparing press releases and have met with a team of marketing, PR and advertisers at our long term corporate sponsor, RICOH. We have many ideas to raise our profile and to get individuals to feel closer to TLC. Ricoh have helped us a lot in the past and continue to purchase a weeks worth of groceries for us every month - their longstanding committed involvement gives us a lot of hope for the future and we are so grateful to them!
We also have friends in Australia now raising funds in two schools, they have managed to get the children excited about helping us out. They have given up time and energy to sell goodies for TLC's benefit and we are so grateful! And the particular family involved will be visiting TLC in the new year! Here is a pic of one Australian event :-)
