RE-SPECS Launches Dime Prompt Fundraising Campaign

Ever heard of a dime prompt campaign? No? That’s because we created the concept and coined the phrase too! This ingenious idea is based on the concept of We Give You a Blessing and a Dime; You Multiply and Give in Return. A simple concept but how does it work? We send to our contacts and supporters one solitary dime (actually an e-dime) with the following message:
 
It took 10 cents to make you smile and get you thinking. See it as a small blessing. Now, imagine you multiplied that blessing manifold for a person in need. $10? $100? Get back to us with your blessing. Your donation can make a SPEC-tacular difference in a person's life. We know. We've seen it.

We know the idea and the dime makes our recipients smile and gets them thinking. We know they treasure the dime blessing they have received. And we trust that they will respond in kind and multiply those blessings and dimes as a donation in return. RE-SPECS uses donations for two purposes: 1)to operate its comprehensive program to assist the underprivileged in getting affordable glasses (an ongoing expense) and 2)to complete the renovations of its new eye clinic (a one-time expense).

We wish all our supporters – both donors and recipients – much blessing and look forward to a successful campaign.

Ever had an idea so simple and practical, that you can't believe it hasn’t been done before? I feel lucky enough to have been able to volunteer recently for a non-profit organization, an amuta, whose goal is to bring just such an idea into reality.

RE-SPECS Frames for the Needy, founded and run by Chana Simon, was conceived about 5 years ago when she noticed that an innumerable number of eyeglasses in great condition were being thrown away; meanwhile, many families with economic difficulties were struggling to afford new glasses. Taking both these facts into account, Chana realized that this wasted resource could be collected and channeled to the underprivileged.
