Real-Life Example: Ruby Wedding Anniversary

The Challenge

The children of Mary and Robert wanted to celebrate their parents' 40th wedding anniversary with something more meaningful than a traditional party. They wanted to collect memories and messages from friends and family spanning four decades of marriage.

The GoodGrid Solution

They created a 40×40 grid (one block for each year) with blocks at £1 each, inviting family and friends to share memories and photos from throughout the couple's marriage. The funds raised were used to send the couple on a surprise weekend trip.

The Results

The grid filled completely within three weeks, raising £1,600. The children created a beautiful printed framed version of the grid with all the messages, which was presented at a surprise celebration. Mary and Robert were overwhelmed by the collection of memories spanning their life together.

"GoodGrid gave us a way to create something truly meaningful for our parents' anniversary. It allowed friends and family from around the world to participate, even those who couldn't attend in person. The stories and messages they shared created a tapestry of memories that money simply couldn't buy."

Daughter of Mary & Robert

How It Works for Milestone Campaigns

1

Create Your Campaign

Set up your grid with details about the special occasion, the honoree(s), and how the funds will be used (gift, experience, charity donation, etc.).

2

Invite Loved Ones

Share with friends, family, and loved ones, inviting them to sponsor blocks with personal messages, photos, or memories for the special occasion.

3

Celebrate Together

Present the completed grid as a special keepsake during the celebration. Consider creating a printed version to display or give as a lasting memento.

Tips for Milestone Campaigns

💡 Choose a Meaningful Grid Size

Consider a grid size that reflects the occasion, such as 50×50 for a 50th birthday or 25×25 for a 25th anniversary, creating a symbolic connection to the milestone.

💡 Keep It a Surprise

For maximum impact, consider keeping the campaign a secret from the honoree until the celebration, when you can reveal all the messages of love and support at once.

💡 Suggest Block Quantities

Encourage loved ones to purchase multiple blocks based on their relationship to the honoree. For example, "£5 worth of blocks for family members" or "£10 worth of blocks for lifelong friends."

💡 Create a Physical Keepsake

Plan to convert your digital grid into a physical keepsake, such as a framed print, photobook, or even a custom puzzle, that will serve as a lasting reminder of the celebration.
