DNA Advertising Go Yellow 2010

DNA-go-yellow-for-rowcroft-2010

It’s that time of year again, when we at DNA humiliate ourselves in silly outfits in an attempt to raise money for Rowcroft Hospice.  For this year’s ‘Go Yellow’ day (March 31st) we are going to be performing a series of challenges IF we reach various levels of donations. Our tasks are likely to be uncomfortable, embarrassing or frankly ridiculous – your job is rather simple…

Pledge at our ‘Just Giving’ page here and make sure that we reach the donations required for us to make fools of ourselves. We’re determined not to be branded as Yellow Bellies so after we’ve endured a task we’ll be uploading hard proof – pictures or video updates – on this very blog page… Be sure to check back often. The final £1000 Challenge will take place on ‘Go Yellow’ day itself and is certain to be quite the feat. Stay tuned for challenge updates!

Come on, let’s beat the £700 raised by us last year! Visit: www.justgiving.co.uk/dnagoyellow

Or see some press coverage here.

We’re all hard at work in our outfits to raise money to Rowcroft Hospice. Please donate at www.justgiving.co.uk/dnagoyellow to raise enough money for us to perform one of our charity tasks – That’s right, this year the DNA team are acting like monkeys and going bananas by performing devilish tasks in return for your kind donations.

Thank you to all those who helped us reach our 1st donation milestone of £200! As Jim was top of the Banana Ballot vote (good choice!) he was summoned for Task 1: The Yellow Smoothie… Poor Jim endured the lethal cocktail of a full jar of piccalilli, a tin of sweetcorn, 2 bananas, a full jar of mustard, a tin of pineapple chunks, half a bag of grated cheese, the juice of 3 lemons, 1 whole lemon (skin ‘n all), and a little ‘something extra’ (make sure you watch to the very end!) :) This was all blitzed to perfection and ingested with deserved reservation… Enjoy the video – you helped make it happen!

As you all know, we’ve been ‘Going Yellow’ to raise money for Rowcroft Hospice. Reaching our 2nd donation target of £400 meant that our Creative Director Paul (Jim was back in London – blast!), had to undertake TASK 2: ‘Banana & Custard’ -The Yellow Gunge forfeit! Turn up your speakers and enjoy! Thank you for donating, we’re still taking donations… http://www.justgiving.co.uk/dnagoyellow.

A massive thank you to all who have donated so far! After smashing the donation target of £700, the team here at DNA proved an interesting sight as we undertook the final forfeit;
TASK 3: Seaside Banana Skinny-Dip.
Whilst wearing our banana outfits in aid of Rowcroft Hospice’s ‘Go Yellow’ charity fund raiser, we turned heads making right bananas our ourselves on the seafront! Turn up your speakers, watch and enjoy! Donations are still welcome – If you haven’t already, please give a little to this great cause
