How To Support This Initiative

How Can I support This Initiative?



There are several ways in which you can help to protect this Initiative.


1) Donate personally any amount to the Learning Support Fund now.
This fund allows me to take on Communication Agents applicants that do not have sufficient funds to pay their fee by themselves.


2) Find other people who would be willing to donate some money to support you or someone you know in becoming an effective Communication Agent.


3) Become a Communication Agent yourself. If you are a skilled communicator, a good writer in your own language, and have at heart to make a difference in this lifetime, sign-up now to become one. Each Communication Agent is hirself, among other things, a talented fund-raiser and the money sHe collects through hir campaigns is used to finance new valuable Communication Agents in need of a little financial kick.


All donors (unless explicitly required) will be listed on our Communication Agents Supporters page with a credit line and link when donating through the PayPal button just write your credit line and link in the Message box and I will be happy to publish it for you).


Other types of sponsorships

The Communication Agents Initiative offers two other unique opportunities to support and sponsor this project.

a) Institutional Sponsors
Institutions, companies or individuals who want to sponsor with a large donation this Communication Agents Initiative are welcome to do so.

The money received from Institutional Sponsors will be used to augment the CA infrastructure both in terms of logistical apparatus, technology support and marketing communications.

All of the money received will be accounted for on a public page. In the same page I am listing items and needs for expansion that could be funded with extra money. In this way Institutional sponsors can choose to support a specific feature or facility and I will be happy to have their name on it for the rest of time.


b) Campaign Sponsors
Campaign Sponsors are donors who select to invest significant amounts of money (over € 100) to support a specific Campaign.

Organized campaigns will take place once there are at least a few graduated Communication Agents. Campaigns will target specific issues within an Area for Change and they will utilize one or more Communication Agnets to be carried out.

Funds obtained through this type of sponsorship will be made available directly to the CAs that support that initiative.

Initiatives and groups of CAs will compete for such funds by publishing detailed Campaign briefs (communication attack plans) and by listing resources, services and tools required to carry out the Campaign in full. Estimates and detailed descriptions for items and resources needed are provided in a transparent way, so that donors can select also on the basis of value and credibility to which Campaign direct their money.

As in all other cases the Agents will themselves keep an open, transparent account of where an how the money is being spent.

You're the man, Mr Good!

Am deputising for Bala as he scurries around the net recruiting mindecos and moolah.

So, do you have an IM address?

Talk to you soon

PS Can also chat about being a comms agent.

PPS So fired up at the moment that I'm scared to touch anything in case it combusts!
