Experience
They say people don’t remember what you did, they remember how you made them feel. This is also true for the donor and their experience with a charity.
Our History
Genesis
October 2015
Fleece & Thank You, a 501(c)3 charity, launches with the mission to provide every child in the hospital with a fleece blanket and the idea to connect each blanket maker to the blanket recipient with a video message.
Problem Identified
December 2015
Fleece & Thank You started helping other charities with video connection. This grew exponentially tedious as more videos started to accumulate.
Temporary Solution Created, Inspiration Hits
January 2016
A simple wordpress plugin is created to solve the problem and allow donors to upload a video to connect with their impact. This inspires the idea this could be a tool other charities benefit from.
Feasibility

The Fleece & Thank You Executive Director is introduced to a development firm to discuss making this plugin an actual program that other organizations can benefit from.
