Missing Persons of America Donation
Help celebrate Missing Persons of America's five years of helping others find their missing loved ones by showing your support and dedication or becoming a sponsor of the page.
With your help, MPofA will continue to provide vital information regarding missing persons in the United States. Most importantly, MPofA has proven to be a resource that is used by anonymous individuals to pass information on to family's of missing loved ones which many times has resulted in them being reunited.
I am also proud to tell you that MPofA has also become a source for casting directors and producers and news media looking for stories to air on TV. By contacting MPofA I have been able to match TV shows with family's of missing loved ones that have gone on to share their story with millions of TV viewers. As many of you know it can be almost impossible to get the attention of the news or TV to help spread the word about a missing person. Because MPofA has developed relationships with the media and TV we are able to reach out to them.
For example: One of those most recent cases was the missing couple from Houston. From our resources we were able to contact several news reporters and let them know they were missing which resulted in the story being aired that evening.
“Missing Persons of America, thank you for immediately springing into action, as soon as you learned of their disappearance. Your diligence in getting the media in Houston on board and your willingness to keep their story in the public’s eye has not gone unnoticed. Despite trying to obtain, but not having every detail, in addition to receiving criticism along the way, that has not thwarted your efforts in doing the best and all that you can to help. Continued prayers for all involved. My sincerest hope is that the focus becomes more and more about finding them.” - Danyell Grissom
For another example: Casting producers reach out to me to ask for story ideas for their upcoming new shows, primarily aired on the Discovery Channel. After I received their criteria I search the website for possible matches and then get them in touch with the familys. Many of these matches have gone on to be on "Disappeared," "Happily N'ever After" and a few more that are in pre-production.
Since the beginning, MPofA has survived primarily through my own personal resources and hours upon hours of time sharing, posting, communicating, linking and researching to provide up to date information on missing and found persons in the US.
I am there almost 24-7 to answer questions and help share photos of missing people all hours of the day and am proud to be the go-to website for 23,000 subscribers and 21,000 followers on Facebook.
With your support, I plan to do the following:
1.) Use your donation to pay for hosting of the website (Last donation was used to move the website from Blogger to Wordpress that has improved the functionality as well as page rankings; so more people can find us. This move has already proved to be effective as we have doubled our visitors.)
2.) Bring on part-time paid support, so frankly, I can take a break and not worry. The website over the last 6 months has grown to 1 million visitors, the highest growth since inception, but as a result I am becoming overwhelmed andneed help. Right now the website has over 9.4 million visitors.
3) Bring on part-time paid support so they can go back through the 1000's of stories and make sure every single one of them is up-to-date and those that have been found will reflect that. A task that I have not had time to do.
4) Bring on part-time paid support to edit past and future posts so they are error free.
5) Bring on part-time paid support to streamline a database of criteria so that when TV producers call, I can narrow down the time it takes to find matches.
