Hi John,
I am writing in my individual capacity regarding the campaign.
Jason Burnett, a grandson of Dave Packard, is very interested in helping the campaign.  Of course, he is happy to help fundraise, but he would also really like to be a part of and contribute to discussions about the environment and related issues. (He will be ending his term as mayor this spring). I have pasted a brief bio below.    You will see that he has some great experience and insight.  
He would love to be in touch with you to see if there is a chance he can be involved.  He will be meeting you at the dinner Nat Simons is arranging about philanthropy and climate on March 16.  But he can also be reached at   [email-masked] or (831)238-0009.
Thank you.  
See you in a couple of weeks.
Carol
