What is the A-rabber Enterprise Campaign?

The A-rabber Enterprise campaign is a volunteer action initiative to build a better Baltimore with the focus and help from Youth, Health, Green and A-rab themes.

Phase I (now through February '10):

In order to attract the resources we need a budget which rests on the expertise of designers, planners, builders, curriculum developers, sustainable community, horse husbandry, farmers, etc.

Email me at LBRivelis@Campaign Consultation.com and I'll send you a one page draft of ideas to help stimulate out-of-the-snowdome thinking.

If you like what you see, have some ideas and want to invest some time through February -- if you're fearlessly positive and want to join this action Campaign, let me know. Give me the area(s) that you can be most helpful in for Phase I.

Thanks, Linda

Final Words on A Productive Journey to Taiwan, Hong Kong and Beijing

So get this -- I land in Baltimore this past Tuesday after my travels to Taiwan, Hong Kong and Beijing followed by some time off in Florida.  What do I see in the hallway exiting the airport?!!! 

 

An ad for Taiwan!  So I've included a picture of the promotion which shows athletes ready to race and says "Taiwan on The Starting Line!" with "Ready Set Go" and "TODAY'S TAIWAN".

 

I am now, forever, joyfully sensitized and captivated by anything or anybody remotely related to Taiwan, Hong Kong, Beijing and the rest of China! I stop dead in my tracks to absorb information.

 

Thank you for following this philanthropic delegation journey to these locales.  This will be my final posting on this blog subject.  However, I have also included photos and captions of activities conducted after our 8 hour days of meetings – i.e., eating, shopping, traveling, touring, etc.

 

And for all my new friends halfway around the world, I am very serious ... if any of you are traveling in the US; please include a visit with me and Campaign Consultation.  Until then … best wishes for 2009 celebrated in U.S. on Dec. 31 and in China on Jan. 26!

 

Linda
