Especially with press releases.<br /><br />One thing you might like to think about, is to go to a charity you support, and ask for a mentor to help you as you work on setting up the charity. That way you'll get support and encouragement, and the skills you'll need to be a great mentor when it comes to be your turn.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1720872153813357167.post-7538208485706241432011-04-05T10:56:29.410+10:002011-04-05T10:56:29.410+10:00I'm 100% sure you began the day you started wr...I'm 100% sure you began the day you started writing this blog! <br /><br />Not to mention, you are a delightful friend to have.

Twitter and Facebook would also be great ways to spread the word. Maybe a large hospital in your capital city could endorse the idea, especially as there's been success overseas? If you're simply asking for support, rather than money, many organisations/individuals are more likely to come on board. And the media would love it once it's up and running!Ann from Likes to Writehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15680642104247505820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1720872153813357167.post-42020901608713927762011-04-02T20:05:47.589+11:002011-04-02T20:05:47.589+11:00Would you like to write a guest post on my blog Ca...Would you like to write a guest post on my blog Carly?

Maybe some professionals will help - see the Burns Unit at the RCH or the Fire Brigade (they help the Burns Unit) as they have had interest in disfigurement, contact the Law Insitute of Victoria or/and the Bar Council or/and PILCH to see if a lawyer with skills can set it up as a charity where you can get tax deductible donations to obtain funds, write to the relevant Victorian Minister to see if they will help, contact Women on Boards to see if they can put an ad in for you to get interested people.
