I am looking forward to the meeting this afternoon with Ertharin. I wanted to give you a heads-up that it is too early to claim "victory" on the fundraising front with WFP. Yesterday, I learned about other less-than-productive conduct by the WFP fundraising team concerning "collaboration" on corporate engagement (we thought we were closely coordinating...but learned that it was not reciprocal). I do not want to raise any issues related to these fundraising matters at the meeting this afternoon but wanted to ensure that you knew that it was too early to celebrate the establishment of a model partnership.
