hey pete, thanks! :) its really exciting to see someone who donated $1 on the streets years ago reconnect online. was it the LA Film Fest?

those early donations helped build the site. took some time, but we are making progress. your additional support is really helpful as we prepare for the Road to Oprah, so thank you again.

you can help more by telling Oprah we are coming (and how you got involved): www.roadtooprah.com/telloprah

also, keep building your crew, connecting with our other producers around the world. our site will continue to improve as people use it and give feedback.

and are you really a professional fundraiser for non-profits? i'd like to hear any ideas you have for our non-profit. we are still just getting off the ground.

we are starting to get support from companies like Apple. and Von Dutch is also coming on board.

thanks again,
n

oops, after sending this last reply email, it seems that it does post so obviously the original reply to you got lost because of my user error

well just wanted to add that if you all don't already have what we call in the business a strategic fundraising plan - am happy to help develop that utilizing the fundamental understanding that there are only four sources for nonprofits:
individuals
corporations
foundations
government
and only three basic fund development methodologies:
individual donor cultivation
grantwriting
special events

again, love to discuss over coffee
let me know
best regards,
peter.
