We encourage regular visits so you can familiarize yourself with other Fellows and their work, which may spark a desire to contribute or request something to/from them. If you haven't set your browser to remember the URL for the Alliance do so now or have someone show you how to do it.
 
 Reminder: Newsletter's Purpose:

The Alliance exists to foster voluntary collaborations among Fellows on each others' social benefits projects. This is our primary mission.

One of the methods of fostering collaborations is this newsletter which is
periodically sent by email to the Fellows of the Alliance, who can interact with the website, each other and post content. It is also sent to "Friends of the Alliance" - anyone wishing to subscribe who may view the contents but not post or edit the website. To subscribe to this newsletter send an email to [email protected] and put "GCA subscribe" in the subject line.
 Mentoring One Another

Send your needs and offers to [email protected] so they can be included in the next newsletter or, better yet, reach out to the Fellow to whom you would like to offer a favor or from whom you would like to request one.
