IMPORTANT - READ COMPLETELY AND THOROUGHLY ALL THE WAY TO THE BOTTOM OF THE PAGE
First of all, Again…WELCOME TO THE MAAAAAAAAAAFIA!
Second, Let me apologize for the delay in getting this to you. It’s been crazy busy over here in Mafia land.
If you want us to support your move-in day experience, it is CRUCIAL that you read these instructions carefully and entirely.
First, we need your forms by TONIGHT, August 8, 2023 AT 11:59PM CST. THAT’S TEXAS TIME. IF YOU ARE IN EST, THAT’S 12:59 AM.
I know it’s short notice, but the delay couldn’t be helped. Please accept our apology.
AGAIN…WE NEED YOUR DOCUMENTS SIGNED BY TONIGHT at NOON CST!
MOVE-IN DAY MAFIA TV SHOW
As I mentioned on your notification call, we are turning our mission into a dorm room makeover TV show! Nothing ratchet or disparaging…just a sweet, heartwarming, feel-good show that highlights your awesome story of overcoming and resilience and the work of Move-In Day Mafia. The last show I did like this in Hollywood, we won an Emmy. Only this time, I don’t have the big backing of the Hollywood machine behind me…yet!
We are super excited because your story, matched with the good that Move-In Day Mafia does, will bring more exposure. More exposure means more donors. And more donors mean more scholars like you, that we can help. So thank you for considering paying it forward.
Therefore, if you want to be featured in one of our episodes, you MUST sign what is called an “Appearance Release” that is required for TV shows. It simply means you are giving Project Dreamlight (the company of Move-In Day Mafia) permission to film you for the TV show.
Watch this video below so I can explain the release to you. It might seem a bit overwhelming because of the legalese! Don't worry. I'll explain what each paragraph means.
Signing the release does NOT mean you are guaranteed to be in the show. My team will work out those details later but we need the release in place.
Remember that you are NOT required to be in the show in order to receive EVERYTHING we have promised to you. YOU are our first priority.
Our only request is your participation in the reveal of your dorm room when it’s finished. We will only record the reveal with our cell phone cameras to use in our marketing and promotions to invite more donors and share on social media.
After you watch the video, you should have already received an email from Adobe Sign so that you can electronically sign it. If you don't see it, notify us immediately!
Then…
Complete the form below so we can learn about your favorite things!!!!
I can’t promise we will be able to get it all right now or match it perfectly, but you have my word that my team will do their best!
Next…
Once you have signed the appearance release (if applicable) and completed your “Get To Know You” form below, you will get a text message from Michelle Bailey, your Student Concierge. She will be your primary point of contact from now through Move-In Day.
Lastly…
On your actual move-in day, you will coordinate with Michelle. But you will have to be out of your room pretty much all day. So if you arrive to campus before we do, once we are ready to set up your room, you will have to disappear so we can work our magic. 😜
If you agree to be on the show, we will use part of that time to interview you. It’s okay to leave your stuff in the room, but do NOT unpack completely because you will need to pack it back up once we arrive. So I suggest you only unpack what you need to use until we get there.
If you have any questions, email [email protected]
