Social Media Template #1 for Monday, April 5

Hi Friends, happy April 5, also the kickoff to #AYAwarenessWeek within #AYApril!  As you know I support the @Ulman Foundation’s important work that helps adolescents and young adults impacted by cancer.  Now, more than ever, young adult patients are facing added challenges on top of cancer- they have additional financial challenges with furloughs and layoffs, risk of exposure to COVID-19, and further complications with treatment and sometimes even seeing their families.  That’s why, this month, during #AYApril I’m hoping each day to collect a donation equivalent to the day of the month, to support these young adults.  So, yes, today, I ask you to donate $5!  You can do so right here [insert fundraising link].  #AYApril #AYAware #AYAcancer #UlmanFoundation #youngadultcancer

Social Media Template #2 for Friday, April 9

Happy Friday! It’s April 9- the last day of #AYAwarenessWeek, and today I’m asking for a donation of $9 to my fundraising campaign for the @Ulman Foundation.  Click here to donate.  If I keep up with one donation per day equivalent to the day of the month, I’ll raise $465 by the end of the month.  These funds will support Patient Assistance funds for Ulman’s clients that help patients afford transportation to treatment, utility bills, and groceries, as well as Ulman’s other ongoing programs.  Donate here.  TIA!  [insert fundraising link].  #AYApril #AYAware #AYAcancer #UlmanFoundation #youngadultcancer

Social Media Template #4

Happy April [day of the month].  You know the drill by now!  I’m asking for donations of $[day of the month] to support young adult cancer patients through the @Ulman Foundation.  Your support helps operate Ulman House, a free home-away-from-home for young adult patients and caregivers travelling to Baltimore for treatment, as well as support groups, and patient assistance funds.  Please consider donating to my fundraising goal here: [insert fundraising link].  #AYApril #AYAware #AYAcancer #UlmanFoundation #youngadultcancer
