Show Support for Spierer Video Campaign

In Charlene's email to us (@NewsOnLaurenS) today, I was blown away by how gracious and strong Lauren's mother continues to be. She is still hopeful and and thankful for the efforts through this #Twitter account. The Spierer family will continue to need our support. They need our compassion. They need our encouragement... now, more than ever.

Today we are launching a Show Support for Spierer Video Campaign. And we need your help. We are looking for you to tell us about what the search to #FindLauren means to you.

• What have you done to help?
• Do you exceed your daily tweet limit? And why are you putting effort into doing that?
• Why did you want to help?
• Did you go on a search? If so, what was it like for you?
• Can you relate to Lauren or her family? If so, how?
• Did you go to IU? Does the school mean something to you?
• Why is this so important to you?
• Do you want to say something to the family to show them support or encouragement?

We'd ask that you consider the above questions and tell us how you are feeling about the search to #FindLauren. You can make the video with your best friend, your daughters, your mom, your sisters, your dad, or just you if you want.

Videos should be no longer than two minutes and links to your video should be sent to newsonlaurens@gmail.com. Videos can be uploaded through Vimeo, YouTube, etc. All we need is the link. Then, we will share the best as we go!

After you make your video tweet: I just sent in my video to Show Support for Spierer. #FindLauren @NewsOnLaurenS, missing since 6/3, findlauren.com

Will you take the 25 #tweets to #FindLauren Challenge?

Can you send out 25 tweets for Lauren throughout your day? 
It's day 25 and we still need you help, more than ever. We are focused on keeping Lauren's name out in the media and it's important we get those Twitter influencers on board.

Why is this important in the search to #FindLauren? 
Your influence on #Twitter has gained national media attention and has influenced large agencies to help in the search to #FindLauren. If the dialogue continues, pressure also increases on those that might have more information to come forward.

CNN Justice
