The recruitment of survivor-thon supporters and participants, by you, will begin on the 8th day of the 8th month of the 8th year at 8 o’clock AM China time. We will have a month to gather steam, sell promotional items and the all-day Thon will be held on September 9th.
您将在08年8月8日北京时间8点开始招募生存者马拉松支持者与参加者。这样,我们就有一个月来汇集各方力量,卖出宣传产品。全天的马拉松将于9月9号开始。
The all-night Thon starts on the 9th at 9:00 AM (9 represents endurance and overcoming adversity in the east) and ends at 9:00 on the 10th, China time.
通宵的马拉松在中国时间9号早上9点开始(9在东方代表持久和克服困境),19号早上9点结束。

5. Please invite a few friends every day so you are able to get familiar with the application before full recruitment begins on the 8th. Then please invite up to 20 a day! You will find it very easy and very fun to use. You can sign on, invite people early and even buy Dreamblogue products during any time (you mighty want to consider the Yunnan Coffee if you will be staying awake for the Thon in Sept!)
请每天邀请一些朋友参加。这样,您就能在8号全面招募开始之前对这款应用软件比较熟悉了。全面招募开始以后,请每天邀请最少20人!您会发现它使用起来轻松又有趣。您可以提早报名参加,邀请朋友,甚至可以在任何时间购买Dreamblogue产品(如果您要在9月通宵马拉松的时候保持清醒,或许您可以考虑购买云南咖啡)

The purchase of Dreamblogue products are encouraged but not required. Profits made will support projects like the survivor-thon and the Dreamblogue abled-intern Program.

另外:我们将借助社会传媒的力量售卖来自贫困社区及Dreamblogue实习生计划—庇护工场的宣传产品。我们希望有一天能为全世界其他慈善团体的销售品创造出一个数码市场。因此,要是您希望添加产品到马拉松的话,请务必通知我们!
目前,我们将销售产自受地震重创的云南的咖啡,产自海南岛的咖啡,产自有一百二十万人后因洪灾被迫迁移的广东、印有我们标记的帽子,以及由我们的好朋友Siok Siok Tan制作的关于北京奥运的纪录片。

理由:
“生存者马拉松”有三个目标:
• 凝聚全球有志于发扬国际慈善合作精神的人

• 通过销售 Dream Blog 的优质宣传产品,建立一个以中国为大本营的数码庇护工场, 支持和帮助全球各地的慈善活动;指导非政府/非盈利组织以及其他慈善机构如何创造和营销产品、信息和服务,并分发到全球各地,以这种方式持续为他们的工作筹款。

• 参与者可以鼓励朋友、家人以及商业团体赞助自己醒着更新的每个小时。当然,他们首先要声明这些钱将用于何处,但所有个人筹得的善款都将被送到参与者自己选择的慈善团体。筹得善款以后,参与者将亲自把钱交到慈善团体手中。
• 在“生还者马拉松”期间,我们会通过Facebook上的应用软件以及在BLOG OF DREAMS的WST页上随机派发几千份捐赠的礼物。
The survivor-thon will hopefully make the money it needs by charging for promotional items participants choose, like hats, coffees and ethnic items….
