Thrust Hostels is poised to be a modern, chic, eco-conscious and LGBT-focused hostel chain. However, in order to make the vision a reality, we need your help. Prospective investors want to see that we’ve got groundswell support from millennials who are supportive of our venture. That’s why we need your help jump starting Phase 2 of our GoFundMe campaign, so we can get our core management team to Collision www.collisionconf.com to secure investor funding.
Your Mission
We’ve spent years coming up with the concept for Thrust…envisioning modern, secure facilities with interactive touch-screen displays and LEED certified buildings that exist in harmony with their surroundings. We want LGBT+ students, travelers and allies to feel free to be themselves whenever and wherever they choose to vacation with us. We intend to launch our first and flagship location in fantastic Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
Armed with this information, we need your help to get to our GoFundMe goal. Organizers must help us to raise a minimum of at least $150 in order to qualify for the grand prize. The organizer who helps us to raise the most funds above this threshold will be awarded our grand prize.
1st Place
Judging
The organizer/coordinator who raises the most funds for our GoFundMe campaign, above the $150 threshold, will have his/her pick of one of the aforementioned grand prizes. Judges will tally the contributions from students at the college/university with which the organizer/coordinator is affiliated to determine the grand prize winner. Only contributions which fall within the period from which the contest was announced and the closing of the contest will be considered.
When is the deadline?
Contributions will be tallied on Friday, April 22 2016, by 11:59 p.m. (EST)
The winner will be announced on Friday, April 29, 2016, the day after the Collision conference concludes.
