Welcome friends and friends to be! With my partnership with Dress for Success Oregon I am introducing During this journey I will share my direction, progress and discoveries as I create a Community Action Plan, abbreviated henceforth, C.A.P. In my project I will invite community members to join with me to write to those of an older generation. I will first start by inviting Dress for Success Professional Women's Group members and their families who are of an age that they can confidently write. Also invited are any community members who would like to forge a relationship with an older generation. Letters should be addressed to someone who is of an older generation that is related to you and also someone of an older generation who is unrelated to you. I am reaching out to community partners in hopes of finding support to weave our community together for this common purpose. It is my goal to offer workshops to encourage great correspondence that will be meaningful to both partners who write. As workshops develop I will keep readers updated.
In our world we are competing in an increasingly competitive and fast-paced environment where ample time is rare. The solace for what ails our homes, families, neighbors and communities lies in each of us as individuals sharing our gifts and reaching out to those who are suffering from loneliness, sadness or other trials. By small and simple means can great things come to pass. With this as my guiding light I will encourage the individual who joins my C.A.P. to find their voice through writing and find a means of sharing their personal stories and encouragement to a generation. In the process I hope wisdom, love and learning will be exchanged. I hope that my C.A.P. will become Our Community Action Plan. Together we will strengthen our homes, families, neighbors and communities.
If you have an idea how you or your company can contribute to my C.A.P, would like to get involved through writing or other means please leave a comment or email me shannonmilliman@gmail.com.
I am seeking stationary, envelopes, postage stamps, ideas, people to inspire about the rewards of writing in a workshop, depending on level of involvement perhaps a location to hold workshops and a writing celebration, and likely..that little thought in your mind that you are wondering if it might have a place. Thank you for your support. Please share this blog.
