Make Money Doing What you Love
Become Financially Independent Through Using Passive Income

Logan, Utah - Times are hard, especially around this holiday season. Making money shouldn't be hard according the Cache Valley Area Investors Association (CVAIA) though. They believe in passive income.

Passive income is investing time, assets and experience by building financial independence. Lowering expenses and increasing passive income is the key to leading a happy life, says CVAIA's President, Preston Parker.

The CVAIA was founded to help people become satisfied with their lives and finances, says Parker. "I want people to have jobs they love to be financially independent."

“Once your passive income surpasses your expenses, it doesn’t matter what you do for a living,” said Parker. “Work can be fun; you can do what you want and what you enjoy.”

The CVAIA meets every other Thursday at the Cache County Chamber of Commerce building. Each meeting is held at 7 p.m. and feature a guest lecturer. There is no fee to join the CVAIA and you can check out their website at cvaia.com. It offers information on past and present meetings, the history of CVAIA, and ways to receive passive income.

"Creating an atmosphere where people actually want to go to work may end up making the world a better place," said Parker. "The education is right here for the taking. Everyone is invited to come.”

Cache Valley Area Investors Association (CVAIA) teaches people how to increase passive income. CVAIA embraces the law of attraction, law of abundance, and law of exchange. They practice the methods found in the ideologies of books including Rich Dad Poor Dad, The Wealthy Barber, The Millionaire Next Door, Atlas Shrugged, The Automatic Millionaire, and The Secret. CVAIA began in August 2007 and now has members from many geographical locations and from all walks of life. The members come together with the same belief: that education mitigates the risks of investing.

Re: Online reputation

As I searched your name on Google, the first website that showed up was you profile on Facebook. Since I am your friend on the largest social network, I was able to see that according to your profile picture, you love spandex. You also love dogs, milk, sunsets and Megan Fox. Your parent's are Sharon and Clark Salisbury and you have four siblings. The Diamond Gallery is your current employer. As I was looking through your information, I found two websites of yours: your Blog and Wordpress site.

If I wanted to ever stop by your house, I would go to:

671 E. 2160 N.

North Logan, UT

84341

I would call you at 435-232-1097 or e-mail you at kirk.S@aggiemail.usu.edu

All courtesy of your Wordpress site.

Your Blog confused me, as it said you were a public relations major but on Facebook it says you are an mechanical engineer major. If you are trying to deceive someone, it is working. On the flip side, I found that you helped with the research for the future of PR at USU, helped organize Mark Shurtleff's visit to USU and created a PR crisis management plan for the Sports Academy & Racquet Club, making me think that PR is your current major.

Another Google search found a Kirk Salisbury on Classmates.com. It said you were a West Genesee High School 1978 graduate. I know this information to be false.

Overall you have a great online reputation. I didn't find anything that could possibly ruin your career or personal life. Although, I would suggest writing more articles that get published and maybe start blogging more to get recognized more often. You're doing a great job Kirk.

Prospectus Letter Final

Men Can Stop Rape
Creating Cultures Free From Violence

Sexual Assault Anti Violence Information (SAAVI) is an organization on campus that helps stop sexual assault and gender violence. We are currently working on a program called Men Can Stop Rape (MCSR). MCSR is a unique course that teaches men how they can stop sexual assault and gender violence. With your help, we will have the funds necessary to promote MCSR and develop a campaign, used nationwide, know as men of strength (MOS). We are seeking a donation of $15,000 for the year of 2010. The purpose of this campaign is to change the mentality of men and create a culture free from violence.

Appeal:

Our organization is seeking private sponsors to fund the MCSR and MOS. The Jon M. Huntsman foundation has been a leader in philanthropy. The foundation has donated numerous times in helping domestic violence, the homeless and most importantly education. Most recently it donated 26 million dollars to the Huntsman School of Business at Utah State University (USU). Huntsman’s strong ethical beliefs and values correlate well with the message our organization promotes. We are looking for a private donation of $15,000 for our chapter of MCSR.

Opportunity:

SAAVI is a one-of-a-kind organization in the state of Utah. They have their own building, director and separate funds to help educated and help students attending USU. Donations make it possible for us to offer help, support, and programs to those in need. With increased donations, our programs can reach more people and be effective in creating cultures free from violence. One in four women will be raped or sexually assaulted before she reaches college. In Utah, one in three women will experience rape or sexual assault in her lifetime. With the help of the Huntsman foundation we will better equipped to reach our goal of reducing this statistic.

Solution:

By receiving a $15,000 donation, MCSR will be able to implement various programs to increase university awareness. These programs include:
-A 15 second radio PSA on Fusion HD3
-A 60 second TV PSA on local channels
The radio and TV PSA are scripted and ready to go into production.
-Events:
Campus Strength: supports and empowers USU male students to work on campus and within the community to put an end to men’s violence again women in all forms. Many educational programs use the phrase “real men don’t rape…” however the stereotype associated with “real men” is a negative, misogynistic view. Instead MCSR has created campus strength, the tagline being “my strength is not for hurting,” thus implying that you can be manly without hurting.

Youth Development: goes into Jr. High and High schools teaching males in peer-to-peer small group settings. MCSR members encourage them to make a pledge, being a man who uses his strength for respect and not for hurting.

Public Education Messaging: using pictures and inspirational messages, this program emphasizes how men can use their positive attributes and attitudes to help change our culture into one free of violence.

Capabilities:

USU started a SAAVI chapter in 2002. For many years before that, USU Women’s Center helped with rape and sexual assault cases. A small committee of volunteers formed, meeting periodically and addressing these types of issues. However, they didn’t have a central location, budget or director. Since then, SAAVI has created and opened up chapters of organizations against rape and sexual assault, MCSR being one of them. Men Can Stop Rape is a unique program that focus’ on teaching men about sexual assault and rape and is under the direction of Rachel Brighton, who is also the director of SAAVI.

Budget:

Amount/Description

$2,500 -- Radio PSA
$2,500 -- Video PSA
$5,000 -- Classes and teachers
$5,000 -- Events and programs

Conclusion:

By receiving these donations, MCSR will be able to further their mission in creating cultures free from violence. We will give you two week to review this proposal and are excited to answer any of your questions after that. If any questions arise before then, feel free to contact Rachel Brighton at 435-797-RAPE or rachel.brighton@usu.edu
