A few days ago the Chicago Tribune ran a story, “Thousands of Bras Collected for the Needy,” about a friend of mine, Oz du Soleil, and his organization Support1000. After the journalist wrote her article for the Chicago Tribune, she felt like the story deserved more space and expanded on her article in a blog post “Chicago’s 1,000 Bra Man.” The story has been linked to by other national news and media organizations and the response to the publicity has helped spread the word about Support1000. As a result, Oz has been inspired to take his organization to the next level and form Support1000 as a non profit organization. Having previously assisted organizations in applying for non profit status, I was happy to help Oz prepare the necessary paperwork to start his process. I want to congratulate Oz in bringing his charitable idea to life and continuing to expand his vision.

It’s amazing what one solid, unselfish idea can lead to. Good for Oz, and thanks to you for helping him.
Thanks Bob. Yes. It’s amazing.
Thanks to Patrick for kicking me in the butt and being supportive in the non-profit goal being realized. This will be key in ensuring that Support1000 continues to live and be a positive impact on the women, families, organizations, volunteers and donators that we work with.
