Do You IM or Hotmail? If you and your friends and family keep in touch through instant messaging or hotmail e-mail accounts, make it work for your favorite cause by signing up for Microsoft’s i’m initiative!  Each time you message or hotmail, Microsoft will donate money to one of ten organizations dedicated to a worthy social cause. Take a few moments to listen to Ashley Echavarria, BGCA’s 2005 Southwest Regional Youth of the Year, talk about her Boys & Girls Club and how important it is to her life. Ashley, a junior at Northern Arizona University, grew up in the Boys & Girls Clubs of Northern Arizona and knows the value the Club provided her and others during her school-aged years. Now she’s working to open a Boys & Girls Club in her college town of Flagstaff. Ashley knows first hand that many kids need a Boys & Girls Club of their own.  You can help Boys & Girls Clubs of America by simply downloading Microsoft’s i’m initiative on your computer and keep in touch with your online pals. Or support our cause through your hotmail e-mail account. Be sure to select Boys & Girls Clubs of America as your i’m charity and then ask your friends to join the cause.  It’s a simple way to help kids across America and it’s free. So sign up today!
