Dear Members of the Board,

Thank you all for your continued engagement and support of the Truman National Security Project. Since our last board meeting it has been my pleasure to speak with each of you about the direction of Truman and the growth of our programs. In 2014, the Truman National Security Project will continue to unite next-generation veteran, political, and policy leaders to develop and advance strong, smart and principled solutions to the global challenges Americans now face.

In order to achieve that mission, Truman must continue to enhance and expand our board of directors in order to build a strong foundation of financial support for our organization.

At our last meeting, we voted to add Suzy George as a new member of the Board and discussed the importance of establishing new relationships to help meet our annual fundraising goals while also building long-term partnerships that will generate support for years to come. It is in that spirit that we will convene again by phone to add a new member to our board of directors, Craig Hanson, whose bio is at the bottom of this e-mail. I've had the pleasure of getting to know Craig over the last few years in his capacity as a Truman Fellow and I think he'd be a great addition. As a venture capitalist and member of the President's National Finance Committee, he's got the fundraising chops and some helpful Bay Area connections.

We'd like to do a quick (5-10 min) call on Friday, August 1 at 3:00pm (EST).  Please respond and let me know if you are able to join -- we need a quorum in order to take a vote, so it is important that we have participation. We will send around an official agenda and call-in info once we confirm your availability.

In the meantime, please do not hesitate to contact Sarah Bruno at [email-masked]<mailto:[email-masked]> or 202.216.9723 x2315<tel:202.216.9723%20x2315> if you have any questions.

Thank you again for your continued engagement and commitment to the Truman National Security Project.

Respectfully,

Mike Breen
