HOW WILL WE ACHIEVE OUR MISSION?

By publishing a monthly e-magazine in a multi-languages format as a global free platform for all generations, genders, nations, cultures and mainly encouraging intellectual productivity in written, visual and multi-media format at any age and level. (Currently we publish 3 to 4 times a year, in English and Turkish.)

By establishing a national and international corps of volunteers representing the organization.

By launching an “On-Line Interactive Discussion Platform” on the Light Millennium’s web site, based on questions and subjects selected quarterly by board members, volunteers, representatives, correspondents and participants.

By expanding broadcasting of the Light Millennium TV programs in New York and other states, as well as producing new documentaries and television programs related to art, culture, peace, social and global issues.

(Depending on funds and sponsorship, crew and equipment availability.)

By organizing “special events” for inter-cultural relations, harmony, and synergy, that will promote our mission as well as provide us with fundraising opportunities.

By conducting a letter campaign to introduce the organization to more than 3000 thousand foundations, organizations, corporations and government agencies nationally and internationally until the year 2005.

By obtaining grants, funds, and sponsorships for the organization’s start-up financial needs, as well as for special projects and activities already in planning through the year 2005.  (Please see other side of brochure for more details on our wish list of projects.)

Light Millennium embraces myriad ideas and has been shaped by you since January 2000.

Thank you for being part of the Light Millennium.

Be in peace, love and light.
