I am about to launch a new site where members can sign up and try to get donations for their tour fees.

There will be a premium feature eventually where your profile will be featured on the main part of the site, for maximum exposure. I am willing to give you a free upgrade on this once you sign up, if you will be willing to help test the site and find/report bugs or browser incompatibilities that you find. Also if you have any suggestions/feedbacks please let me know.

Either way, you should sign up because it can help you get your fees paid for the summer.

The site is http://www.helpmemarch.org if you sign up, just post your profile url here as a reply

I tried signing up, and it's saying my marching bio can't contain personal contact information.

Correct. Personal contact information being things like "facebook, email, yahoo, phone, myspace, etc"

Basically I am trying to avoid members trying to get potential sponsors to send them money directly (free money) instead of a tour fee donation.

I did see your profile went through so I'm assuming you fixed it?

Please let me know if you have any suggestions or bugs here - http://suggest.53mp.com/forums/75515-helpmemarch-org
or contact me through the site or here if you would like to add a testimonial or have anything else to say.

Thanks! I hope it works out for you

I'll message you what I wanted to have in it, it didn't have any contact info.

I shared your site on my facebook where I have 300+ corps friends.

Awesome thanks. I have a facebook group page, but I haven't done anything with it yet.

Go ahead and like it or do whatever you do with that. lol

If you are making an account and want the hookups down the road, make sure you post your profile url in this thread so I can keep track of it.

Some possible future features I am considering have been added to http://suggest.53mp.com/forums/75515-helpmemarch-org

If you have any more, please feel free to post through that link

I want to know more about how to help Bob Hope!

lol That section of the page hasn't been integrated with the database yet.. that's next on the list. It will be an area for featured members.

Chris, the index has been updated to now showcase the featured members on the site.
