Michael supporting CHIDEO to raise funds for MBC

MICHAEL is supporting CHIDEO so please sign up and support him.   Chideo is a new way of raising funds to benefit causes dear to the hearts of those involved and this is achieved by celebrities agreeing to seek suggestions from followers of what they would like to see them do and they will make a video of the suggestion that gains the most votes.   Monies will be raised by those wishing to view the video, paying a nominal amount to do so, and this money will go to the cause that is nominated by the celebrity.

 

Please follow link below to hear Michael talk about what you can do to support him with his CHIDEO involvement and help to raise funds for the Michael Bolton Charities

Here is a brief resume of what CHIDEO is about.....

"Over the past few months Film Independent has been working on a few exciting and important projects with the United Nations and UCLA’s Burkle Global Impact Initiative, which aims to activate the entertainment industry to engage more deeply and effectively with global policy, humanitarian and advocacy issues. We’ve hosted several of the Under-Secretary-Generals of the UN at our offices, and held a roundtable conversation at the Los Angeles Film Festival with members of the UN and UCLA to discuss humanitarian-themed storytelling.

Now, we’ve been asked to help review an innovative idea launched by another friend of the United Nations, Chideo, which partnered with the UN on its recent World Humanitarian Day.

Chideo is a digital platform created by Todd Wagner (2929 Productions, Magnolia Pictures) designed to raise money for causes that celebrities care about. Here’s how it works: fans make suggestions to celebrities about what exclusive content that they’d like to see. Other fans vote on those suggestions and if there’s enough interest, the star will respond by creating a video based on the suggestion. For example, if enough fans request it, Don Henley might post a backstage video of himself with his band just before they go on stage. Users then pay a small donation ($1.99) to watch the video; and the money is given to the cause the celebrity has chosen to support."

MICHAEL HAS RECORDED A MESSAGE OF THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO HAS DONATED TO MBC VIA CHIDEO.  Below is link into video. June, 2015.

I did ask about the countries that aren't able to enter the contest because a number of you had asked and were disappointed.  The answer is here:

There are a number of laws and policies that we must comply with in order to sponsor these experiences, and in many cases, those laws vary from country to country. We continue to monitor the countries where our promotions are legal.
 
We're very sorry, but some of the countries laws does not allow for the type of experiences we run. We still greatly appreciate your support of The Michael Bolton Charities, and hope you will continue to visit our site and support this and other great charities.

Thanks for that information Gail and it is a pity for it does seem strange that countries like Australia, Spain and Italy can't be involved.  You can understand China, Syria and Iran and the like but the others certainly do have a big question mark on them but, rules are rules and we can't break them all the time !!! lol  Thanks again !!! :)

Thanks a lot for the info Gail. I'm frankly used to having things void in Quebec: it's more the rule than the exception. Take care sweetie. Hugs, sincerely, Sylvie Qc Canada

Hi folks and I just want let you know that I have been asked a question over on my FB page and I know some people on here wondered about as well so I contacted Chideo and have received clarification from them and it is in relation to the number of "entries" shown in the boxes beside each individual award you can claim/donate to and exactly what that means.   What Chideo have said is that there will only be one drawing and the number in the boxes relates to the number of actual chances YOU have in the draw depending on what award you are claiming and, therefore, what amount you have donated.  

$10 donated will give YOU 1 entry in the draw

$25 donated = 3 entries in the draw

$50 donated = 10 entries in the draw   and so on.......

You can enter as often as you like for there is no restriction whatsoever on number of entries within any category.

Hope for those that wondered about this helps to answer what that "little box" actually means !! lol
