  • Advisor Announcements



Advisor Announcements

Advisor Mindy Dutka would like to announce:
Project Renewal,
the only organization that provides everything homeless New Yorkers need to move from the streets and into health, homes and jobs, is proud to announce the launch of an exciting,
innovative new project, Dining for a Difference.


Dining for a Difference is a month-long initiative in February, 2010 that will give consumers the opportunity to purchase a $40 discount card from Project Renewal.  In turn, cardholders can use their cards at
restaurants across the city, where they’ll receive $25 off their total bill.  All that cardholders need to do is purchase a card and dine out during the month of February to help give hope to homeless New Yorkers.

But we need your help! Right now Project Renewal is soliciting restaurants across
the city, trying to get them on board for this exciting project.  In turn, as part of our aggressive advertising campaign and targeting marketing, participating restaurants will
enjoy increased traffic, revenue and visibility as well as benefit from being recognized as an ambassador of good-will.

If you know a restaurateur or frequent any restaurants in the New York City area
that you think might be interested in participating, please call or email Mindy Dutka, Project Director, at (516) 428-2245 or
mindy@theevent-co.com.


Sister Raj, one of our favorite
advisors, invites everyone to  celebrate
the International Day of Peace on Monday, September 21.2009 from 6-8:30 PM.



The venue is 172 Norfolk Street, NY, NY. Please RSVP to Sister Raj at 212-564-4335 or to manhattan@us.bkwsu.org
Reservations are required. Event is free.



Dear Friends,

Thanks to all who came to the September 14th First Mondays at The Parlour.  It was nice to see some old faces and new ones as well (we won’t tattle on who has had “work done”).  It was a great crowd and we hope everyone brings 2-3 people with them to the next event on November 2nd at B. Smith’s (320 West 46th Street).

Our advisory board and free Directory keep growing and our mission is getting more focused. Sure jobless claims are down (again) this week, but unemployment is at record highs, especially in NYC. Further, the nature of work keeps changing, and unless you are lucky enough to be with a Big Company (for now), job security is at an all time low.  I won’t discuss health insurance (don’t get me started) for fear of alienating some of our more
conservative friends, but please send me to France if I ever get really sick (or throw me in the East River…)

As we enter this special time of year, when The Divine One is in the fields and repentance (t’shuvah) through good deeds is possible, may you be inscribed in the Book of Life….and may you all
have…

Peace,

Dan
