bandtogether for
National Foster Care Month,
And make the voices of young people be heard!
Here are 5 ways you can do your part for National Foster Care Month:
1. Start a bandtogether Blue Band Campaign
at your school or event.
It’s easy! Just display a blue tape band on your finger... get
blue tape for cheap at the hardware store (it’s called painter’s
tape) or a music store (blue drummer’s tape). Then pass out tape
bands to your friends and ask them to support the cause.
2. Show your pride through
your MySpace page. Copy the code in the box below and paste
it in the “about me” box of your MySpace profile.
Make your page your own by providing foster care facts
that you think your friends should know.
3. Get
the word out when you IM. Our Instant Messaging (IM)
icons let you spread
awareness about foster care every time you’re online!
Pick your fave IM icon.
First, save them on your computer (right click +
save picture as)
Second, place the image in your "Buddy
Icons" folder, then edit your buddy icon using
the "Account Setting" or "Profile" under
the File Menu of their Instant Messenger (IM) Program.
4. Spread
the word with every e-mail! Place this message in the
signature of your
e-mail:
