Although we’re only a few weeks into 2012, I know that this is going to be a bang-up year. Everywhere I go, people are smiling a little bigger than usual. The economy continues to rebound. And for me, professionally, I look forward to the release of 90 Days, 90 Ways: Onboard Young Professionals to Peak Performance (ASTD Press, April 2012) and the launch of my first Moxie Camp (a playspace for women who want to create lasting positive impact in the world) in New York City in June 2012. Opportunities are in the air! If you haven’t hopped onto the Obstacles Into Opportunities list, get your tushie on it so that you don’t miss any of the magic.
If you’re anything like me you’ve received dozens of emails, social media messages, and other reminders about how to set and achieve your goals in 2012. I don’t want to add to the noise. So my first shout-out to you in the new year is going to roll a little differently.
So keep reading.
While I of course hope you watch all of my videos, I doubt any will ever be as important to me as the one below. Which is why it’s a little longer than usual. As you will discover, I introduce you to a very special man that I have been gifted to work with, “Peter”. Peter is homeless. And for too many of the last years, quite hopeless. 2012 has all the makings to be Peter’s best year yet. But I need your help to ensure it.
Please watch the video in its entirety, get to know Peter, and learn how your donation can help Peter – once and for all – reclaim his dignity and bulldoze forward.
Feel free to donate to the Give a Man His Dignity Campaign via the Chipin button to the right on the sidebar. You can also CLICK HERE and go to the Chipin page (http://dignitycampaign.chipin.com/alexia-vernons-give-a-man-his-dignity-dental-campaign) to make your contribution. 100% will go toward Peter’s dental costs.
If you prefer to support Peter by writing a check, please make it out to my extraordinarily generous and effective dentist Dr. Isom, and send it to me at my work address – 4012 S. Rainbow Boulevard, Suite K-464, Las Vegas, NV 89166.
It will take a lot of faith and generosity to get to $3872. But I hope you will agree that if you’re going to put your money toward anything out of the ordinary in the new year, there’s no better place than in helping a homeless man get back on his feet!
I hope you will share the “Give a Man His Dignity Campaign” info on Facebook, Twitter (Click Here to Tweet Now w/ hashtag #GiveDignity), and directly with your co-workers, friends, and family.
Cheers to a year of kindness, abundance, and service to self and others!
