Campaign Helpers Club

Used one of my old clubs for this, so this concept is now live! Link is here - Campaign Helpers Club
Original post (consisting of the interest check) below
Short Version: Would anyone be interested in joining, or seeking the aid of, a club dedicated specifically to helping crossbreed campaigns finish their goals?
More Info: Currently, the idea is - club members gather a list of clubs that have either requested help, or that they're interested in doing themselves. Then it'd be put to a vote in some manner (I'd probably use some kind of online poll maker, possibly the google forms or whatever, but also have a forum discussion open for it). Whatever gets decided on, the club members (maybe not all, but most/lots of them) band together, go join the other campaign, and start working on it. The primary goal would be to finish the required breeding generations, but obviously people could choose to donate coins at their own discretion.
Backstory: I currently have a club that was meant to be a campaign, but was rejected for being considered a purebreed. We (the people already in the club) are debating where to go next - to pivot to another breed (real or fantasy, I'm slightly favoring fantasy) or to help other campaigns as described above.

Why not both?
I couldn't say no to yet another fantasty horse breed...
but your club for campaign helpers is also a great idea :0
Both is an option! I do actually have a second club that I could turn into a campaign helpers club - it's currently sitting abandoned but I could re-describe it and start promoting it for that purpose.
(The main reason I was phrasing it as a binary choice and not "any or all of these options" is because I'm bad at trying to do more than three projects, and "both" would put me over that limit - but I do like both ideas enough to try anyway, even if I did end up having to spend less effort than I'd want to on them)
I also, uh... didn't super want to spend a bunch of effort on the campaign helpers club if it didn't look like people were likely to want to either help out or get help themselves - whereas the new breed is enough of a puzzle for me to be interested whether or not we could recruit more people.
Anyway, awesome to see your interest! I'll let the other club members know, and see if we do want to resurrect my old club after all - the new one (with the rejected campaign) will, at this point, almost certainly be pivoted to the fantasy breed.

That sounds like a pretty neat idea if players got on board
If I can get more room, I'd honestly be on board myself. I do wish to work on the three I am in now and possibly join a fourth, I am unsure of this one for now, but nonetheless I hate having to switch between my main and second alt just to care for my horses. I'd much rather have the two alts as frozen storage space and leave main open to my main projects, I just need next upgrade. Regardless, I probably will look into it if this gains more traction.
I'd be interested in joining the Campaign Helpers club - would members be required to join every campaign though? I am trying to stick with parent breeds I already have, because I'm already on the edge of being overwhelmed. lol.
...okay, I honestly did think, from the first few days after originally posting this, that it wasn't going to get much interest. I must now admit defeat, it seems. No promises quite yet - especially since I did just start working on another campaign - but it does look like I might want to resurrect my other club to be a "helpers" one, after all.
@StormRidge - no, members wouldn't be required to join every single campaign! The goal of the club would, basically, be to get as many club members to help as possible, but- this is just a game, after all, and I'd hate to demand that people do things that they wouldn't find fun. Your own enjoyment ought to come first.

Thank you for your answer. That is great. I totally agree joining in as many as possible is the goal, but it is good to know that it's not a requirement.
Best wishes on your new campaign! 💙
The way I had pictured it was that membership would be open to everyone interested in participating - I can make a table for the page with each member, their availabile breeds, their breeding requirements, cost, etc.
Payment and such would be between members, I wouldn't expect everyone to open their stock for free/cheap. But! It offers breeds to those who don't have them, and can boost generations quicker than trying to start from scratch.
The Campaign Helpers Club is now live!
We've just opened up, and don't have a project yet, but we invite anyone interested in helping or getting help to join (and/or suggest things!)
