[EFN-Collaboration] Hello

[julie caldwell]

Thanks Brandon for your appreciative inquiry...

The balance of funds is approx $12,000.  It came from O.net to honor  
the work EFN did together, in particular our work in organizing the  
Blaine conference.  It was not given with any attachments or  
stipulations as to how we used the funds.

EFN has a consensus policy and a communication policy.   100%  
consensus.  Or, 3 voices of consensus approving a communication that  
is not negated by anyone else on the board.  All links and  
communications that are moving forward as EFN must be posted and  
shared in this thread.

As of last year the trustees were:  Gerry, Ted, Julie, Laure, Michael,  
and David

None were able to reach consensus on how to use the funds.   The name  
EFN which was a dba of YHY was released by YHY.

Funds are being held by the non=profit Youth Helping Youth, Inc.

EFN does not have a non-profit or business status of any kind.  It is  
a merely labeled name designated on a group of 6 people who currently  
live in the US on planet earth.

I appreciate Micheal and David's comments.  Thanks for the b-day wish  
Micheal.  Glad to hear you are working with Theresa.  Glad to hear  
David is alive and well.

Love to all,  julie
