start a non-profit

I told you I would upload the Logo and here it is. Seeing this kindof makes the project seem more official.

One more thing I found a company to design our branding materials. (logo, stationary, brochures, etc.) It is way cheaper than going with a local designer and they have 72 hour turn around. It is pretty cool because you explain the concept to them and then they send you ideas from 8 different graphic designers. Then based on that you begin refining your artwork. It’s a great concept and very simple and efficient. I should be getting another mockup tomorrow before 11 and I will post it here.

I am working on a non-profit right now called “the gratitude project”. The idea is that if we are able to show people what they have to be grateful for that it will motivate them to action. Hopefully we will be able to help people become less self centered and more focused on the needs of others. We will be starting this summer by sponsoring research at a university to analyze everything that has been written on why people feel gratitude. We will be using this research as a basis for interviews that we will then conduct with individuals from all walks of life. We think we will find some common themes. Our goal will be to then share this information through books, videos, education programs, etc.

I would appreciate any advice
