GRACE LUNCHEON

‘To achieve a culture of caring, the Foundation has developed three key social action tools, namely: A GRACE LUNCHEOB to foster caring in the community through its leaders; CARING NEIGHBOR ROUNDTABLE  to draw neighbors together,  PROJECT CARING NEIGHBOR  for schools to educate the next generation about the caring upon which our prosperity rests. These three strategies when generally implemented will elevate a level of a culture of caring that will transform planet earth.

Grace Luncheon’ refers to a monthly, freely offered luncheon which is
intended as an opportunity for sharing and providing mutual support among
community leaders in promoting a culture of caring.

Organizational Specifics:

‘Grace’ means ‘free’ in that the luncheon is a gracious offering that
invites a grateful response – a social dynamic that is the basis on
which a culture of caring is built;

Any individual or group whether civic, religious or private is invited to
host a luncheon. Twelve hosts are needed to make a Grace Luncheon
program viable;

‘Leaders’ includes those who are in a position to promote a culture of
caring;

The luncheon should take place on a designated day and time each
month, e.g. the third Tuesday of each month at 1:00 pm;

 The CNF will sponsor the luncheon by way of covering expenses
related to promotion and communication;

The coordinator should attend each luncheon to welcome the quests
and thank the host of the luncheon; and

 There will be no agenda except the luncheon itself because the
gathering is intended for leaders, who promote caring to meet, get to
know each other and germinate caring ideas or initiatives beyond the
lunch gathering.

PROPOSED LETTER TO GET PARTICIPANTS TO SUPPORT OR ATTEND A GRACE LUNCHEON

 Dear _______________

You are invited to be part of a monthly ‘Grace Luncheon’ promoted by the Caring Neighbor Foundation (CNF). 

The Grace Luncheon is intended to be an opportunity to share a meal and provide mutual support among leaders like yourself involved in promoting a culture of caring in the community.

While the CNF is the promoting agent, caring religious, civic and business groups are invited to take a turn in hosting a luncheon once a year.  

The luncheon will take place on the third Wednesday of each month at 1:00 pm. You will be notified regarding when it will begin, who is hosting it and where it will be held.

There will be no agenda except the luncheon itself because the gathering is intended for leaders of the community to meet, get to know each other and germinate caring ideas and initiatives beyond the lunch gathering. 

If you wish to be a part of this community effort please call  _________. Thank you for being a part of this effort to make a culture of caring the foundation upon which to build a thriving, caring community.

Sincerely,

(For the Caring Neighbor Foundation)
