Next "Talk Back Tuesday"

[Peter Buffett]

Hello Everyone!

Philanthropy is very important to me – there is something rewarding about giving back and knowing that you’ve made a small dent in making a difference in the world. I’ve tried my best to convey my thoughts and goals through my music and a social media site I launched with Akon, www.istheresomethingicando.com. Please check out the site, and the two songs Akon and I have collaborated on (“Blood into Gold” and “Anything”) in effort to support various causes.

I would love to talk to all of you about my philanthropic efforts, your philanthropic efforts, my music and more during my “Talk Back Tuesdays” on my Ning community. These online live chats happen the first Tuesday of every month – with the next being this coming Tuesday, August 4th at 8PM EST. You can request to join the community on www.peterbuffett.com/ning.

Hope to see you all there!

All the best,
Peter

Peter I would be very very interested in this.
I honestly believe that arts can be the inspiration to such goodness because our souls are touched by the arts like music , visuals etc. WOuld it not be great to create a community of artists that can work together to give forward.

I have two dreams for now in which maybe you can help, donate, inspire

One is to make a small movie depicting Peace from different countries. I will ask people of different countries what they think is the greatest obstacle to peace and what is the greatest act that they can do for peace and some other questions related to peace and other social issues. In the end , I would like about 500 responses that can be edited into a powerful film. The film will also capture impromptu acts of peace, kindness etc.

I would then like to get the media like CNN etc. to air it for free for the social good.

To do this, I need a professional movie camera by sony or panasonic or jvc ... I need a laptop and a movie editing software. If anyone has a camera that is spare or not beng used, an apple laptop and movie software that you are willing to donate for this project or help finance, please help.


The second dream is to build a website that will allow people all over the world to post their dreams and projects for social good and let philanthropists and people like you and me to help n - this website will cost about $3000 -$5000 to build, host and SEO. I am looking for investors in this project/ philanthropists etc.
