What is OCD Gamechangers and how can YOU participate, spread HOPE, AND receive a meaningful gift in return?
For the price of a ticket to the event, $40, you will have the opportunity to spread hope and inspiration by submitting a quote (with your name or anonymously) to be shared with attendees and published in our 'OCD Gamechangers: Journal of HOPE'. You will receive the complementary journal in the mail after the event. All proceeds go to sponsoring 'OCD Gamechangers' events and the creation of the 'OCD Gamechangers: Journal of Hope'.
Living with OCD can be lonely and isolating. Symptoms can take
over our entire existence and the obsessions can be so shameful and
scary we often are reluctant to reach out for support. This is why
it is SO important to have advocates and therapists speaking out,
creating innovative projects, and spreading awareness that there is
HOPE for OCD. That is why I created the event 'OCD Gamechangers'.
'OCD Gamechangers' has two purposes. 1. To elevate and encourage
individuals doing advocacy work by giving them a platform to share
their story and inspire others who may be contemplating advocacy. 2.
To create community, spread awareness about OCD and treatment
options, and offer a place of HOPE that you can live with OCD and
have a full life.
This year, we want to offer attendees and participants worldwide
the opportunity to share what keeps them motivated and hopeful.
For the price of a ticket, $40 or more (anything above
$40), we ask you to send us a quote of inspiration & hope that
we will post up at the event (with your name OR anonymously). After
the event, your quote will be compiled in our first 'OCD
Gamechangers Journal of Hope'. You will receive the journal after
the event as a trinket of our appreciation and also so you can see
the impact of the event and how your quote contributed!
This journal will contain the quotes we receive from you and
attendees as well as thought-provoking questions about OCD to
journal about. We will include pictures and snippets of the content
of the event and meaningful moments of the day. Consider it like an
'OCD Gamechangers Yearbook!' This journal will be on sale after the
event, but this is a pre-sale so YOU can be included in it.
We are hopeful you'll be excited to share your own inspirational
quote and also that the journal you will receive afterward will help
you feel more connected to our community!
After you donate, please send your quote and mailing address to
Kristen Jackson at omanxiety@gmail.com.
Please let Kristen know if you want your name published with the
quote or to remain anonymous.
Deadline to send quotes is February 20th, so please get them in
ASAP!
