Marketing Internship/Senior Year
Donation protected
April 15, 2013 two bombs went off at the Boston Marathon killing three innocent people and injuring 264 others. Two young men from Emerson College (my son, Christopher Dobens and Nick Reynolds) jumped into action by coining the phrase "Boston Strong" from their dorm room near the bomb site. They started out with wanting to sell 115 t-shirts to help the victims but the campaign known as "Boston Strong" took off and before you knew it Christopher and Nick raised over $1,000,000 with the help of Ink to the People to support the One Fund. It was then that both young men became co-founder of "Boston Strong". There was no benefit to either student for creating this marketing campaign. It was an unselfish act and now I would like to help my son, Christopher Dobens, raise the funding he needs for his upcoming Senior year/Internship. This is my way of thanking him for helping all those people during Boston's time of need. Many people took advantage of Christopher and Nick's "Boston Strong" idea and lined their pockets with money from such an unfortunate event. Walmart has "Boston Strong" sweatshirts when you enter the store. Are they planning on donating the funds they make on each sweatshirt or are they selling them in hopes they will make money on them because the 2nd anniversary of the marathon bombings is just around the corner. Any donation amount is greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
