How Omni Collectives Can Support Omni Fundraising
1. Come up with a few small things we can offer as thank you gifts to donors. Suggestions we have heard are: kombucha, collective t-shirts, magnets that say "Omni"

2. We will want you to send out an announcement of the campaign launch to your collective's email list

3. Provide us with any media contacts you have who might be willing to write a story about Omni during the FR campaign

4. Send a member to be on the FR WG
