You may have heard of YEA (Young Entrepreneurs Alliance) before.
BNI has worked with this outstanding youth organization under the direction
of Executive Director Julie Nessen who works with developing the
entreprneural spirit in youths. Julie
recently wrote to BNI to let us know that networking can go beyond business.
It can take a life that looks lost and point the person toward realizing
future dreams. Thanks to the work of BNI member Jeff Schaffer (Sager &
Schaffer, LLP) of the Marlboro Chapter, this came true for one of YEA's
teens. The rapid
networking that took place in 48 hours following a call to Patti Salvucci for
help was very effective! Patti called Jeff, who called the ACLU office in
Boston to get the assistance that an unjustly accused teen desparately
needed. BNI WORKS! |

Helping BNI members in New Orleans I'm Bob Yee, a soon to be 10 year member of the Quintree Chapter
of BNI. I am an Ambassador in the Norfolk County area and I was recently
asked by Patti Salvucci to head our region's efforts to support the
Adopt-a-Member Program. Based on the number of chapters in our region we have
been asked to help 8 members of 2 different BNI chapters in the Greater New
Orleans area. I have personally spoken to each of these affected members and
the challenges that continue to face them on an ongoing basis to piece
together a semblance of normalcy is incredibly daunting. These
members need our help. And help we will. This is going to be the type of
scenario where we are going to ask" who do you know who..." I believe
that if we collectively mobilize our resources we can offer tremendous
support. On your part, we ask that you ask for someone in your chapter to be
your point person. Please contact me as soon as possible to let me know who
has stepped forward for your chapter. I truly believe that we can make a
difference. My contact
information is as follows: rtyee@yeefinancialgroup.com (w) 617 770-4884 (c)
617 224-6083 All the best, Bob Yee |
