Dear Members of the Board, The full Board meeting conference call is scheduled for Thursday, December 9th at 4:00pm. This call will last approximately 1 hour. With your help, ZERO is completing one of its most successful years ever. More than 10,000 men were tested for free, fellow Board Member Sherry Galloway and PCF's Dr. Jonathan Simons successfully testified before Congress, the Summit to End Prostate Cancer was an unmitigated success as numerous Members of Congress, including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi attended our activities. On top of all of this, ZERO hosted 13 races around the country grossing more than $800,000 (with more income still arriving) and our endurance teams raised nearly $100,000. The Board is also completing its most successful year ever. You raised more than $12,000 to re-brand the Drive vehicles, you added energetic, passionate and committed new Board Members and you oversaw an overall 19% increase in the organization's revenues. You also established a new precedent for in-person Board meetings and participated extensively in the Summit to End Prostate Cancer. All told, a victory in the battle against prostate cancer. Now, however, is not the time to relax. The fourth quarter of the year is generally the largest income generator for a nonprofit. The monies raised in October, November and December not only fill-out the year, they position the organization for the worst quarter of the year; January, February and March. While much has improved in the financial stability of the organization, the economy has held ZERO's operating reserve to just about 30 days giving us little room to negotiate financially during the lean first quarter. As a Member of the Board we are asking each of you to do the following to help us finish the year strong and position ourselves for an even more successful 2011: --Provide ZERO's development staff with contact information for 3 to 5 people who you believe should be involved in the prostate cancer battle. This includes foundations where you may have a contact. Jonathan, Skip, Jamie and David will be happy to make calls, send emails and meet with potential donors --Please forward our year-end appeal emails to your friends and family with a personal note encouraging them to donate or purchase a "share" of the cure for someone they know* --Send us a quote about why you are involved as a Board Member of ZERO --Let companies, individuals and your contacts know about the new website that will go live after Thanksgiving. Your guidance, generosity and involvement has been stellar this year and we look forward to a bigger, better next year and more importantly, a few steps closer to achieving Generation ZERO. Thanks for all that you do.
