Happy New Year's to all of you and we hope your holidays were wonderful! We are excited about all of the programs and events scheduled this coming year.
As we all embark into 2009, it is a wonderful time for making New Year's Resolutions. Do your current resolutions include helping our community realize how important psychoanalytic ideas are to all aspects of our lives? Here are some suggested New Year's resolutions which will help promote psychoanalytic ideas in our community:
1. Volunteer your time and talents in our office.
2. Join a NCPF committee.
3. Take a friend to a MindPlay performance.
4. Contribute to one of our scholarship programs.
5. Bring a friend to the Academic Program on January 24, 2009.
6. Encourage a colleague to join the NCPF and enjoy the membership benefits.
7. Join the 12/12 club. Commit to a five year commitment of giving to the NCPF.
9. Do your online shopping and travel arrangements through give.com/NCPF. $5 is raised for NCPF with each person who joins. It is free to join.
Remember, these are just of few ideas. Please let us know at info@ncpsychoanalysis.org or at 919.847.2323 about how your New Years Resolution will help to promote psychoanalysis in our community! |
