I have acquired a new title. (No, I have not given up my day job.) I am now also the Founder of 1000 Libraries, a non-profit whose mission is to establish 1000 Libraries of inspirational books around the world in developing communities for children and their families. I have spoken on this project a few times but the last time I spoke - to North Bethesda Rotary Club - I also created a slide-show to go with it. I have uploaded the slide-show on LinkedIN. I will appreciate your feedback. I realize that the Slideshow is designed to accompany my talk so may not tell the full story. If you have any questions about the details of the project, please let me know at my contact below. My talk is designed to be 20 minutes in length talk that could be blown up to a 1-hour workshop format and intended to be inspirational, uplifting and thought-provoking about the problems of the world. Please let me know if you know about a gathering of progressive, service-oriented people in need of a need a great speaker and an uplifting topic. By the way, the project does not accept direct donations from people or corporations so you don\'t need to be worried about me asking for money or donations! Thanks for your lending me your eyes and ears!
