IN CASE YOU MISSED IT… YOU GET TO VOTE! 😂

Remember when I (Bethany) promised to publicly embarrass myself if we met our $150,000 HOPE Match?

Well… YOU DID IT. And apparently, I have to keep my word. 🤦🏼‍♀️😂

Now YOU get to decide my fate!

☕ Staff Roast
🦆 Inflatable Duck Suit (you pick the location!)
👗 Fashion Disaster
🎤 Carpool Karaoke

Voting is open through Friday at 5 PM!

We raised $300,000 for families, and now I'm apparently paying for it with my dignity. 😂

CAST YOUR VOTE! 👇

I am THRILLED to announce THE MATCH IS MET!!!

The level of gratitude I have is beyond words. Thank you all for your generosity and kindness to us. God is good and we are humbled.

Stay tuned for an early release of our documentary that was shown at the Be The Light event AND my humiliation voting opportunity. 😆

For all this we DUCK and give God the glory… 🙏🏻

***$3,350 to go!!!*** 😅

*** UPDATE - October 30 *** We only need $4,700 to hit our goal!***

I’ve officially lost my mind. 😂 (This is Bethany - the publicly unhinged leader)

Apparently, years of leading Safe Families has brought me to this moment… publicly offering to humiliate myself for donations.

And the worst part?
THIS WAS MY IDEA.

Here’s the deal. We’re just $8,670 away from reaching our $150,000 Hope Match, for a grand total of $300,000!!! We have until October 31 at 5 PM to make it happen!

So, in a moment of questionable judgment, I’ve decided that if we hit our goal, YOU get to vote on my fate.

Option 1: The Staff Roast
My staff gets five uninterrupted minutes to roast me on camera. I have to sit there and take it. Considering how much I talk, this might actually be the hardest one.

Option 2: The Duck Suit Challenge
I wear a giant inflatable duck costume IN PUBLIC. And because apparently I have no self-respect left, YOU get to choose the location. Within reason. I’m not getting arrested for charity.

Option 3: The Fashion Disaster
My staff gets to dress me for an entire workday. No veto power. No changing. No dignity. And I know some of these women have been dying for an opportunity like this.

Option 4: Carpool Karaoke
My staff picks the song. I perform it with full enthusiasm. It’s recorded. It’s shared. My children may never speak to me again.

Here’s what I know: I am VERY passionate about keeping these children safe and their parents stable. Apparently, I’m also willing to sacrifice my reputation, wardrobe, and possibly my social life to make that happen.

Voting opens ONLY if we reach our $150,000 goal by October 31 at 5 PM!

So please, donate. Share this. Tell your friends.

Because somewhere out there is a person who has been waiting for the opportunity to see me dressed as a giant duck or Lord only knows what kind of outfit in the middle of Wauwatosa.

And I refuse to let that person down.

LET’S DO THIS!
