Support1000: Interview of Founder, Oz du Soleil

Discussing Support1000: Lee Owens and Oz du Soleil

Support1000 ( http://www.support1000.blogspot.com ) is an organization that collects new and lightly-used bras to donate to organizations that serve women. To date, 4000 bras have been collected and 1810 have been donated. We're incorporated in Illinois and our 501c3 application is close to being submitted for non-profit status.

This began as an unofficial project within a program I took through Landmark Education: the Self-Expression and Leadership Program (SELP).

In SELP we're challenged to take on projects that we could not possibly do alone. Hence, I've been able to successfully inspire and motivate people such that Support1000 exceeded it's initial objective and is making world-wide impact as an organization--not as 1 guy's nice project.

Yes. This was an unofficial SELP project. The official project was a music workshop. However, Support1000 exploded, eclipsed the workshop and expanded into what it is today.

Thanks for the positive comments.

Yes - this is Self Expression and Leadership Program project. I love this guy.

I heard this person had participated in the Self-expression Leadership Program of Landmark Education, but the video doesn't mention this at all. Sound's like possibility and enrollment to me!

Anything is possible after participating in The Landmark Forum.
