It has been a momentous time for Bmycharity. Last week we announced the withdrawal of our service, and three days ago we announced that we are merging with Help for Heroes. Behind the scenes we've been inundated with messages of support and encouragement following each announcement, and we'd like to thank everyone who has been in touch by email, phone, in person, via our blog, on Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter.
There have been some very moving messages indeed - and from some unexpected sources. We're grateful to everyone who got in touch - and here are some special mentions...
- Those who offered to give to keep us going - most of all the lady who offered to sell her home!
- Those who proposed mergers with their own enterprises
- Those who we've competed with and who were gracious
At a challenging time we've enjoyed an amazing quantity of kindness and generousity and discovered hundreds of friends we never knew we had. Thank you.
We're really pleased that the future of commission-free fundraising is assured. But just in case we get complacent, we've kept a copy of an anonymous 4 second shouted voicemail we received that taught us some colourful new language and will keep our feet firmly on the ground :)
