Greetings to all. Something different in this Blog.
This week has three very important things happenings in Neighborhood Transformation’s life. A tremendous amount of time and energy has gone into making this a reality.
First we have gone live on a totally new web site which has been five months in the making. You can view it at www.neighborhoodtransformation.net The site can now be viewed on mobile units. We have tried for less content and focusing on new people not familiar with Neighborhood Transformation. Our old web site was really focused on people who were trying to or implementing Neighborhood Transformation.
There are ways people can get involved wherever they live and at whatever position they are in. Check out the different ways you can Act, Learn or Give at http://www.neighborhoodtransformation.net/involved.php. Why not think about becoming involved today?
Second, we have finally created a 1-1/2 minute introductory video introducing Neighborhood Transformation. If you go to http://www.neighborhoodtransformation.net/videos.php and look at the top left hand video, ‘Transformation and You’, to view it. What do you Think?
Third we are doing our first fund raising for Neighborhood Transformation. This is a 60 day campaign with three major letters spread over 60 days with three follow up messages in between that will tell you how things are going and share a short video. The campaign goes from Sept 15th through Nov 15th.
We have a fantastic donor who is matching every gift given up to $20,000 therefore by giving during the campaign you can double the money you give.
The focus of the campaign is to raise funds to start Neighborhood Transformation in 10 new cities across the USA. Please check out the campaign http://archive.constantcontact.com/fs172/1102302026903/archive/1118395884692.html Would you consider providing a gift for NT? You can do that on-line.
One thing we have found critical to get Neighborhood Transformation started in a new city and then to do the necessary coaching of churches who are trying to implement Neighborhood Transformation is a key person in the city who works with churches and non-profits there.
Such a person does not need to move overseas to become a missionary but can stay where they are and keep their job. Or if they want to go part or full time by becoming a Neighborhood Transformation Catalyst we can help you set up a non-profit coming under our umbrella 501c3 so you can raise funds for your non-profit or your personal support or expenses! INTERESTED?? Contact stan@neighborhoodtransformation.net to explore possibilities
Pray with me that all of these initiatives will have impact in seeing people being transformed in a wholistic way and these people will come together to transform their neighborhood from the inside out. Then as multiple neighborhood are seeing success, they join into a collation to transform their city.
