Dear
Nicole Junkermann
I have known Nicole since her time at Harvard and to my pleasure, despite our geographies,
we keep bumping into each other across the world whilst involved in various humanitarian
projects, most recently when Nicole and I were both involved in leading a mission to the
president of Gabon.
Over the years I have delighted in seeing Nicole blossom.... both as a smart entrepreneur &
investor and most admirably in what life is about - giving back and supporting others!
I believe access to your valued network will enable Nicole accelerate her work in the Not For
Profit space and in particular her ongoing promotion of the Human Codes of Tolerance and
Respect which is focussed on advancing acceptance and promotion of peaceful co-existence
among diverse nationalities, ethnicities, and religions, on local, national and international levels
— these are areas I know Nicole who loves travelling, different cultures and is a real peoples
person is truly very passionate about. Her being enabled to reach more and more influential
people through your network will no doubt be very positive and I fully expect will help multiple
the impact she can make for the common good and promotion of diversity across the globe.
Thank you for considering Nicole and I hope you will make the right decision and be supportive
of her admission and help her in giving back even more to Society at large.
I also have no doubt that her becoming a member will be mutually supportive.
Regards,
