Aside from training, work and time to relax, there are other things on the agenda to keep me busy. Recently I received an email from Bob Calvert – host of Talking with Heroes (www.talkingwithheroes.com) – a talk show program dedicated to our soldiers serving over seas. Bob’s been over to Iraq, Kuwait & Afghanistan a number of times to bring back progress stories that the soldiers themselves have told. Check out his website and the YouTube site that is tagged in there too to hear about it. He sent me a message inviting me to be part of a 24-hour Web-A-Thon that will be hosted by the Howard Keating Show online at http://www.keatingnetwork.com/. They’re hosting this program to help out war vets and their families get better established when they return to war time service. Similar to what the project my team is aligned with does, Project New Hope. The details are as follows:
We are hosting a 24-Hour Veteran Web-a-thon on April 6 – 7th , 2011. This program will be heavily promoted by Fleishman Hillard and we anticipate over 1MM viewers during the 24-hour period.
VETERAN 24-HOUR WEB-A-THON
The web-a-thon is designed to help our veterans get jobs, start businesses or expand their existing businesses through opportunities and resources offered on the program. The purpose of the event is to increase awareness throughout the media community of the significant needs and challenges our veterans face (90 percent divorce rate, 107,000 living on our streets, loss of homes and jobs, etc.) These heroes are so completely demoralized upon their return from service, and we need them to know that the corporations of the U.S. are behind them.
Our goal is to honor our veterans by helping at least 2,000 get jobs, contracts, start a business, or create joint ventures.
When: April 6th, 5:00 PM ET – April 7th at 5:00 PM ET
We will be offering:
® Businesses looking to partner with businesses
® franchises at a discounted price
® Jobs from major businesses
® Loans to either start a business or to help increase sales of an existing business
® Distributorship opportunities
® Product and service companies that want to go global
Media platform
® The Howard Keating Show (keatingnetwork.com)
They only have a certain number of participants for this Web-A-Thon so I am very honored to be a part of it. Philco’s Freedom Team & Project New Hope will both be featured, as I will explain the start of my team along with the alignment with Project New Hope.
This Monday (March 28th) I’ll be part of a “Veteran Days Week” hosted by Howard Keating and his staff on their network. The confirmation email yesterday stated that Philco’s Freedom Team will be featured with an interview with Kurt Philion at approximately 5:45pm CT on http://www.keatingnetwork.com/ I’m looking forward to this opportunity to promote Philco’s Freedom Team, Project New Hope and recognize the soldiers, past & present and of course those who have motivated me to keep running – the fallen soldiers. They deserve more respect and honor than they get and we’ll make sure to give them just that with this program.
The email had mentioned that with the help of a PR firm, this program will collect a listenership in the millions. If you get the chance, be one of those millions who will be tuning in! Once I know the exact time for the Web-A-Thon interview that I’ll be featured in, I will post for you information.
