An accomplished construction industry professional with decades of experience under his belt, Arthur Godsell is the president of Godsell Construction Corporation in Hicksville, New York. As an active member of his community, Arthur Godsell of Godsell Construction is a longtime supporter of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
In addition to its corporate partners, St. Jude has long depended on support from the public to continue its vital mission of offering free care to children suffering from cancer and funding innovative research aimed at finding a cure for the disease. In May 2019, social media network Instagram added another avenue for supporting the charity by including St. Jude in its pilot rollout of a Donation Sticker. These stickers will be part of the Stories section of the smartphone application, which allows users to post ongoing video updates.
Through the sticker, donors based in the United States can make donations as small as $5 and as large at $2,500. Users who want to feature the sticker on their stories, which typically expire 24 hours after being posted, can include them as one of their “highlighted” entries, which do not expire. Instagram reaches upwards of a billion people monthly, giving St. Jude access to an entirely new audience for its fundraising efforts. All proceeds from these donations go directly to St. Jude.
