1) 67% of all decisions are primarily influenced by word of mouth (McKinsey).
2) 1 out of every 7 social conversations are word of mouth based (Northeastern University).
...3) Where does word of mouth happen? Answer: Everywhere. (Agent Wildfire Canadian Research)

More than 500 million people like facebook world-wide. The population of the US is some 311 million, give or take a hundred thousand. If every person took 1 minute and told 1 friend about the dangers of Child Abuse and Neglect (whether online or offline or both), and that friend did the same thing, it would only take 7,218 minutes to Shout It Forward to the entire United States! That equates to 30 days of Speaking Up For The Silent! 30 Days of Being The Voice and 30 Days of Spreading the Awareness of Child Abuse!
Then, no one could say, "I Didn't Know".
Won't you do your part! Share this event with everyone you know and "Shout It Forward"!!!
(for those who want the math, 311,800,000 approximate US POP. Divide by 30 days, divide by 24 hours, divide by 60 mins.)
