Students at Tulane University participated in a Dance Marathon last month in order to raise money for the Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals. The fundraiser was a huge success with hundreds of participants and tens of thousands of dollars raised. After it was over, several participants created a Kudoboard in order to thank Carrie Wixom for organizing the successful event (see the Kudoboard HERE).
Sam Patel, the originator of the Kudoboard, said that she decided to use it because she “wanted to find a way to thank Carrie for all her hard work.” Sam knew that Kudoboard would be “more meaningful than a simple Facebook post and give Carrie lots of nice messages all in one place.”
