A Friend Indeed - The Bill Sackter Story

 

 

The following is a listing of just some ideas
on how you can make a difference:

  1. Join our Kickstarter Campaign to get "A Friend Indeed - The Bill Sackter Story" out to PBS Stations across the nation.
  2. Become a fan of our Facebook Fan Page by going to http://www.Facebook.com/BillSackter and clicking "Like"
  3. Post a link to http://www.BillSackter.com on your Facebook/Twitter or other social network account, along with your comments about the documentary
  4. Buy the Deluxe Edition DVD on Amazon.com and enjoy with friends and family.
  5. If you have viewed the documentary, please leave a customer review at Amazon.com (if you have purchased anything from Amazon.com you are allowed to leave a review, even if you purchased the DVD elsewhere). This will help people that don't know about "A Friend Indeed" to see what others feel about the documentary.
  6. Host a screening either by yourself or through a local organization. It's a very rewarding experience to share "A Friend Indeed" in a group setting, and it can lead to public discussion about a variety of topics covered in the documentary.
  7. Get "A Friend Indeed" into your local schools! You can purchase DVDs, or find a local organization to do so, and help make a difference in the lives of students. If your school system develops curriculum surrounding the documentary, please share it so that we can get it in more schools around the country (and the world). Please email Lane@BillSackter.com if you would like to share your educational ideas.
  8. Write your own review of "A Friend Indeed" and post it on the web, submit it to any print or online outlet, or send it to Lane@BillSackter.com
  9. Also, if you have connections to any media outlet that may review the documentary or interview the filmmaker, please feel free to send them to this website and ask them to contact Lane Wyrick at Lane@BillSackter.com
  10. Use your creativity and come up with new ideas to spread the word...

If you have other suggestions, please let me know so I can make an even more comprehensive list - just email me at Lane@BillSackter.com. Thanks for your help!
