The purpose of this website is to hire a presentation team whose task will be to procure a sponsor for the HSe social media app.
The presentation team will consist of two components: a top law firm and all-star consultants.
As a nonprofit 501(c)(3), HSe4Metrics is subject to SCC and IRC regulations.
For example, there is ARTICLE XI below for the discharge of funds if a 501(c)(3) dissolves. To add clarity, HSe4Metrics may also seek to discharge funds at the end of the limited fundraising campaign.
SCC, Article I.3: Tax Status and Purposes.
In accordance with the status of HSe4Metrics as an organization described in “Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as now in effect or as may hereafter be amended, HSe4Metrics is organized and operated exclusively for the purpose of providing K-12 students, parents and guardians, and children during the critical years before kindergarten with free access to a web-based application to leverage education outcomes.”
The purpose of HSe4Metrics and its HSe web app is to transform lives, focusing on young people during their K-12 years and the critical years before kindergarten.
This limited fundraising campaign will seek to temporarily hire a presentation team.
Composition of the presentation team.
The team will be composed of (i) consultants who will present the HSe social media web app to the nation’s top corporations, and (ii) a top law firm to represent the interest of HSe4Metrics and the HSe social media app.
Purpose of the presentation team.
The purpose of the presentation team will be to procure a sponsor for the HSe social media app.
Limited fundraising target: $700,000.
Whether $700,000 will be more than sufficient to hire the presentation team and for the team to procure a sponsor or whether the $700,000 proves to be insufficient, will depend on such factors as the number of major corporations that the presentation team approaches, the number of those approached that engage in doing their due diligence in contemplating sponsorship, and the number that seeks to engage in the process of finalizing a sponsorship contract. Of the applicants who apply to be the sponsor and who are acceptable to HSe4Metrics, in the sole opinion of HSe4Metrics, only one will be accepted as the sponsor.
Limited fundraising campaign end date.
The end date for this 501(c)(3) fundraising campaign will be when a sponsor for the HSe social media app is put in place—or sooner if HSe4Metrics determines at its sole discretion that the donations received are insufficient and terminates the fundraising campaign.
DISPOSITION OF REMAINING FUNDS ONCE THE LIMITED FUNDRAISING CAMPAIGN ENDS.
ARTICLE XI. Upon the dissolution of the Corporation [HSe4Metrics], assets shall be distributed for one or more exempt purposes within the meaning of section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, or the corresponding section of any future federal tax code, or shall be distributed to the federal government, or to a state or local government, for a public purpose. Any such assets not so disposed of shall be disposed of by a Court of Competent Jurisdiction of the county in which the principal office of the Corporation [HSe4Metrics] is then located, exclusively for such purposes or to such organization or organizations, as said Court shall determine, which are organized and operated exclusively for such purposes.
Further, HSe4Metrics will seek to work with the SCC to also apply this ARTICLE XI process to any funds remaining at the end of the limited fundraising campaign in the event a presentation team procures a sponsor that is installed, and, for instance, $100 or even $100,000 is remaining in the campaign funds account. (For ease of clarity and transparency, HSe4Metrics prefers not to mix funds donated by the public with funds donated by the commercial sponsor.)
Your donations to hire the presentation team will be used ONLY to retain and pay the costs billed by the presentation team. No part of donations to hire the presentation team will be used to pay or reimburse HSe4Metrics, its founder, directors, or volunteers for any costs. The job of the presentation team will be to find a sponsor acceptable to HSe4Metrics to sponsor the HSe4Metrics social media app. Once the HSe4Metrics social media app sponsor is installed, the presentation team (being temporary) will receive its final payment and will be disbanded.
Further, your presentation team donations will NOT fund the operations of the HSe4Metrics social media app.
(The cost to fund a social media app can be in the 10s of millions. The funds collected from this limited fundraising campaign are like a grain of sand compared to the sponsor’s cost to fund the operations of the HSe4Metrics social media app. On the other hand, the relatively enormous cost of sponsoring the HSe social media app may be like a grain of sand compared to the sponsor’s potential return on investment.)
Examples of "training avatars" such as these will help orient the presentation team.
Training video points for a presentation team to consider. This avatar (in roughly 2 minutes and 50 seconds) talks about the use of marketing agencies: If a presentation team knows that a marketing agency has access to a top corporation, it can call on that marketing agency to co-present to the corporation, and present the promise of the web app as a high-profile national marketing strategy and as a “corporate social responsibility” opportunity. CSR is important to the federal government. (In a league by himself, JP Morgan’s CEO Jamie Dimon, rather than committing $30 million or $300 million, committed $30 billion to a societal “effort” with aK-12-related component, and equally important, urged other corporate giants to find societal-good innovations and, above all, he stressed, to implement them.)
This avatar’s three minutes of training perspective for the presentation team:
Far from a slam dunk as the presentation team approaches giant corporations to ask them to do their due diligence and consider sponsoring the K-12-related HSe social media app (and repeating the process until an interested sponsor is accepted by HSe4Metrics), the presentation team may want to consider having more than one team at a time and thus approach more major corporations in the same amount of time—that is, if the HSe limited fundraising effort is collecting sufficient funds to allow the more expedient effort.
This avatar (in just over two minutes) focuses on another type of sponsor for the presentation team to consider: a government entity.
Not just the territory of the federal government, a sponsoring government entity for the HSe social media app can be state or local, or even a partnership between the government and corporate sectors.
However, the nimbleness and the critical metrics of the HSe4Metrics and its HSe social media app might be better served if, rather than funding the app, a government entity participates in an advisory capacity.
Further, a foundation could be the HSe4Metrics social media app sponsor.
