Thank You, Office Depot
It’s been a longer time than usual since my last blog. There’s a reason for that. We’ve been very busy in our community, working to build our board of directors, find a web designer who will help redesign www.thehumanityproject.com at a bargain price and much more. We’ve held our first live talk before a community group in South Florida and we have other live events scheduled. All this is part of turning The Humanity Project into a group that is much broader, and more hands on, than just this website. We are working with real people in our community to teach folks to live happier lives through contributing to others – giving. Of course, we’ll also have many more features on this website to teach this giving lifestyle to those who don’t live in South Florida. That will happen when we get our website redesigned at last.
Meantime, some supporters are stepping forward to help us. We just gained a very significant new sponsor this week: Office Depot. This great chain of stores has long been my destination for the many office supplies, office furniture and other materials I use in my work, both as a writer and as president of this group. I’m typing this blog on a desk, and sitting in a lovely office chair, that I bought at Office Depot a couple of years ago.
Office Depot Foundation’s president, Mary Wong, just sent a generous contribution that will help us carry out our important work. The Humanity Project can’t adequately thank Mary or Office Depot for this support. It shows foresight and imagination to recognize the potential of this organization – and to see that we have the ideas, experience and desire to turn our approach toward happiness into something that will help many people. We can only do that with help from others first, though – help from places such as Office Depot and people such as Mary Wong. We are most grateful for this assistance. And we won’t forget their early sponsorship of this growing, determined nonprofit group. We will make an even bigger difference in the months and years ahead. And Office Depot will deserve a share of the credit for that. Thank you, Office Depot!
