Hi Friend!
A big thank you to all our advisory board members for taking
your valuable time Thursday night to meet with us and other NDF advisory board
members. For those unable to attend… you were missed and honored.
While we know how amazing each one of you is, we felt
it important to give all of you a direct touchstone to the awesomeness
of this growing group of dedicated co-hearts joining us in this movement.
At
the bottom of this email, we’ve pasted the contact URLs some of Thursday's attendees put in the chatroom, as well as a few other salient comments. There's a complete list of the current team at https://newdreamfoundation.com/about-us. Let us know if you need further cross-connecting.
To respect everyone’s time, we don’t envision having a lot
of these group meetings. While we will certainly send out periodic group emails,
we look forward to more one-on-one connections with you re your individual
areas of expertise.
Here’s the short list of what we’d most value at this
writing:
1.
Guidance re effective donation outreach
2.
Business contacts for financial sponsorship or philanthropic
donations
3.
Celebrities, musical artists, prominent authors,
potential speakers, etc. aligned with the cause
On the call we discussed the Catch-22 nature of getting the
first celeb, first sponsor, first donor, etc.. What wasn’t said was that there
was a time when we didn’t have our first advisory board member… and look at us
now just a short time later! :)
We welcome any insights—now and ongoing—you have that can
help as we continue to move forward. We look forward to talking soon!
With much love, respect and humility,
Jeff and Misa
P.S. Late breaking news: Our friend and colleague Brahmarishi
Mohanji, who was already been onboard for another NDF initiative, just
confirmed his direct participation in the NDF/WE advisory board. Per his
suggestion, we’re also inviting his wife Devi Mohan, who serves as his ambassador
to the World Parliament of Religions, etc.. https://mohanji.org/
