Dear Mecuda USA, NGO leadership, Good day and hope this email will meet you all in good spirit and health. Please update Mecuda.com website with current information on upcoming MN 2010 Annual Cultural Jamboree and NGO status. Reason why the updates are necessary and urgent: As of today the information we have on the website is old meanwhile we have given out invitations to VIPs and regrettably to hear that ,information regarding the upcoming Minnesota Convention is not posted as of today, and NGO information is incorrect. Please, update to reflect MECUDA NGO status. We are missing a lot if our IT position is not given special attention it's deserves. We believe Nobody is infallible, but not when we're constructively informed, but we elect to ignore. Recommend MECUDA set aside the IT department with funding, say offer this position as a part time job. Yes we can, we should have money to fund this, remember we need to create jobs so as to make money for MECUDA and to provide social services to our community and others and not only depend on membership registration fees as our main source of revenue to run MECUDA NGO-Business not as was conducted in 1994. Though MECUDA initiative depends highly on volunteerism. However, we also encourage some stipend as we're matching on to victory.. Brothers and sisters, not staying on top of things when it concerns making time for things that are important such as our community development and progress does not look well for the future of our NGO-this only tells the World who we are. We send a different message when we direct friends, visitors to visit our website with the hope of keeping them inform about WHO WE ARE, WHAT WE ARE DOING , WHERE WE STAND, WHY WE ARE DOING THIS OR THAT, it is therefore critical to keep up to-date information. As of today,there is no information on our website about Minnesota 2010 Convention and the status of your NGO still 501 3 (C), INSTEAD OF 501 (c) (3) per IRS Status. Yes , the visitors are correct, www.mecuda.com does not have current information about upcoming MN convention and NGO status as of today. Now is not time to apportion blames, this recommendation is intended to help us make necessary corrections/adjustments to our main tool of communication, gateway to success as we look forward to engaging, inviting others to join hands with us in the rebuilding process that will provide a better future for our Clan, children, cultural heritage and in unity as a family. We have over the years, made several recommendations to MECUDA leadership, ideas, recommendations that would help us prepare our generations to be able to embrace great challenges ahead and propel them to exceeds the standards. However, We are not sure if truly anyone of these recommendations were or are acted upon. Please you may have inadvertently ignored or ignore previous recommendations, but not this one, update MECUDA website with current information. It may be okay for us but not Ok for the rest of our partners, friends (world) that are preparing to join hands with us in the rebuilding process of our Meta Clan. Will take our criticism(s) off the air. Let us know if you have any questions-Thanksv/rGiddy

This body will approach, suggest corporate, government agencies,private, other local communities we as a MECUDA,NGO can partnership , invite to join us so together we can pursue economic, social , health, development interests and projects here and in the clan. There is IRS Code (Corporate Statute Law ) that allows NGO like MECUDA-USA (501 c3) to do so. Goal: The Office of Government and Community Relations will also build relationships with community leaders, elected officials, government agencies and third party advocates to further the mission of MECUDA in the public as well as private sectors. Through partnership, relationship building,MECUDA-USA would amongst other things be able to generate larger revenue that could help us promote the health, energy, clean safe water,communication, computer labs, library etc..aspirations envisage for the clan and our community. Thats' how we can encourage more donors to donate, help stay the cause....Minnesota is a great place we can help MECUDA-USA network and revamp our suppots for development in our community and in the clan. In addition, this entity will also coordinates the MECUDA-USA response to a wide range of economic, social and policy issues, and advises MECUDA leadership on strategies to facilitate constructive dialogue with private as well as government and other community leaders. We have got to send out invitations to visitors from far and near by February ending, this will give them plenty of time to plan. Rational: We bring up recommendations like this first because, we have vested interest in the development of the clan and, we like to see what the leadership is doing so we can help. We see the university of Berkeley California is doing incredible work in Africa and maybe it's time we can invite one or two of their scientists to our Mecuda convention in Minnesota and explain what they are doing and how we can help partnership to do the same in Meta clan. Contact Global women leadership net work headquarters base in Santa Clara University. We know the founder and know they care and would like to support women leadership programs in Africa. We think MECUDA-USA NGO has a lot ahead, so would like to help, let us know what we can do to help.
