![]() The Bravery Box started as a one-time only toy drive to top up the hospital prize box and has grown so much momentum it could become something truly significant not just to children in Queensland but nationally.

When donations come in they will collate into three categories (small people, middle people, teen people).

Social Media and Digital Marketing Superstar- Plan promotions and social media campaigns. To start in the next three months after our Not for Profit status has been successfully applied for: Public Grant Managers – seek out and apply for grants offered at Federal, State and local levels. Private Grant Manager – annually there are a lot of businesses who grant not for profits funds to achieve their outcomes. This job will be to seek out and apply for existing private sector grants. Bravery Boss Area Chiefs Bravery Boss is an emerging funding support program we are developing to fund our programs and childhood cancer research. It is an advertising platforms where businesses who financially support the work of the bravery box through an annual fee can promote their businesses. The general public are getting more mindful of the businesses they choose. When a member of the public choose a Bravery Boss business for new work they are supporting our outcomes without actually donating money to us by ensuring that the participating businesses get value from their contributions and annually renew their support. Bravery Boss Area Managers will approach local businesses (with a media kit to support you) to ask if they’d like to be included in the program. We estimate that within the first year of the Bravery Boss program running we can clear over $50,000 for our programs and childhood cancer research. You don’t need to have a business or sales background to fill this role, full training and support will be provided. I am VERY enthused about what we can achieve when we really let this idea run with the skills of many more people than me!

Hi Tanya, not sure what I am able to bring to the party, as B.B. seems to have a Brisvegas footprint right now? Gorgeous Nerida will be all over the social media and not for profit thingys. I’m involved in a couple of organisations here on the Fraser Coast- one is “Give me Five for kids” which is managed by Sea FM to raise donations and funds for kids wards. Are you thinking about extending BB past Lcch?

The bravery box has been one of the products which I most admire. Whoever thought about this were geniuses. All the kids may have really wanted aren't really all these entertainment programs. They are kids. They would love to just play quietly in their safe places. It also wouldn't hurt to just buy new toys instead of giving them hand me downs. Some people wait for anything to wear out before they decide to donate it. I think that's too rude. I wouldn't give a patient any old toy that might already have generations of dust mites that might infect.

I really wish I could come. Hopefully next time I am able to participate in this kind of event. I really want to be part of something like this but the same is true with me, I am far from you, Tanya. However, I really want it, I will find time next time, I promise. God bless you in all the good things you do, may you have a good life, healthy body, etc. Keep it up and I hope to see more of your works.
