Establishing Professional Contacts and Resources

I found the first part of this week's assignment to honestly be very frustrating.  I tried to establish contact with many people on the Resources List, but to no avail.  I sent E-mails to them telling them about myself, as well as why I was reaching out to them.  But I am still very hopeful that I will hear from someone soon.

Since I was not able to establish contact with anyone I then chose the option to research the website for The Global Fund for Children.  I reviewed their home page, researched their people,watched several of their Multimedia videos, and also signed up to receive more news and information on their organization in the future.  I also reached out through e-mail to several people in their organization to establish contact, I am very optimistic.

We work to advance the dignity of children worldwide. We pursue this mission by making small grants to innovative community-based organizations working with many of the world’s most vulnerable children, and by harnessing the power of children’s books, films, and documentary photography to promote global understanding.
