My friends, John R. Campbell and Susan W. Bird, are actively involved in MyVetwork, a social networking site for Veterans. John is the founder of the site; I spent time with both during last year's Blogger Social.The site's goal is - per the About Us page:
"1) To provide our US military and those who care about them with a means to interact with and support each other in ways that range from the lighthearted and entertaining to deep and meaningful connections that they wish to sustain.
2) To create an interactive exchange where a broad variety of experts – including veterans of earlier conflicts – provide timely news of particular interest to military personnel, distributed in sophisticated, graphically exciting format; job and career advice; information about educational opportunities, advice regarding health care, access to coaching and mentoring services, and a variety of other resources valuable to recently separated veterans demobilizing from the military, whether they are recuperating from injury, moving on to further their education, or planning careers in public or private sectors."
Listen to this Good News Broadcast where John explains the benefits that MyVetwork offers. You'll be amazed at the vision, scope and matching capabilities of this network. I certainly am.
My Vetwork needs our help. I share with you this message in case it sparks ideas and possibilities...
"MyVetwork needs to graduate to its own office space....
MyVetwork's dream is to find an individual or organization that wants to do something special for the US Military and their families, and will trade unused office space in Manhattan in exchange for recognition as a MyVetwork sponsor (priceless!). MyVetwork is a 501 (c) (3), in case that's helpful. An alternative could be space available on a short term sublease basis. Either way, I'm hoping you may have a thought for the MyVetwork folks. They're doing great stuff for our vets. In case you want to see for yourself why we're so fired up about MyVetwork's progress, check out their latest exec summary here."
Could you help get the word out?
Thank you.
Happy Memorial Day!
