strengthening and development of global peace.
Sponsorship
is a conscious and common energy that is formed
and developed globally. It is an approach
and contribution to the understanding of different
cultures. At the same time, sponsors will
assist in the accumulation of archival documents
and documentary for future generations to use
as reference.
3.

holdings, international companies, and government(s),
regional and municipal funds.
It is possible
to cooperate with targeted sponsors if they have
the qualifications paralleled with The Light Millennium's
aim.
Also, grants
and funds that are given by official organizations
are considered as support and a source of income
for The light Millennium, Inc.
4. What
are the benefits of sponsorship?
Sponsors
will enable The Light Millennium to gain attention,
strength and establish themselves within the media
so that they can publish freely.
According
to the amount of their support, either through
the Internet platform, TV programs or in futuristic
issues, they will be given credit within the framework
of their support. Their sites will be linked
with other web sites. Also, their corporation
logo will be applied to the related issues or
the web sites.
If the sponsor
organizations have the same outlook, production
and services, as The Light Millennium, Inc., and
their company profiles will be viewed on these
sites. In other words, we will highlight our sponsors
for their existing "humanitarian" services
or projects.
We will
have specific link within our web site of each
sponsor numbered according to his or her level
of support.
If an organization
wants to support a publication issue, either in
English, Turkish or both, that specific issue
will state the following:
"THIS ISSUE WAS PUBLISHED BY THE SUPPORT OF (company
name)."
All issues
including sponsor supported issues, will be placed
in the archival section of
our website. Sponsors as well as visitors
will have the opportunity to view a specific issue
on any given year. All sponsor organizations
will be known throughout America, Turkey and Europe
and will acquire a reputation in good standing
for their support for a not-for-profit multi-media
platform.
We plan to apply
to several foundations, organizations and grants
to receive various type of grants and funds in
order to establishing substructure of the organization
as well hiring a seed staff in this year. Our
Tax-Exemption
form #1023 submitted to the IRS by May 20, 2002,
and we received an acknowledgement letter from
the IRS regarding to our submission on May 30,
2002.
Our success will help more sponsors for their
national and global recognition, which will directly
related what we intend to accomplish. They
will also be reachable from all over the world
via our platform, which will raise their global
image.

6). Why
has the subject of sponsorship appeared in our
publication for the first time?
Until
now, we have not made an attempt to include sponsorship
or funds in our publication vocabulary.
Until incorporated on July 17, 2001, above mention
projects were accomplished as an individual production,
and their status were solely as "personal
projects".
From the
Introductory issue in August 1999 to July 17,
2001, the projects produced, published and broadcast
without any financial or technical sponsorship
by Bircan Unver. She basically transformed all
her time, labor, personal capacity and any single
penny she earned from her "free-lance videographer"
job, into above projects.
Still,
the original idea of the project has kept and
has been realizing as "public interest"
and not-for-profit purpose since its inspection.
Therefore we have been incorporated towards this
goal. Our second goal is to be granted a "tax-exempt"
status by the IRS.
With the
volunteer participants of the platform, we paid
much importance on the continue to the e-publication,
its recognition and increasing its participants.
Thus from the beginning, our aim does not include
a commercial intent but pays attention to public
usage of our publications. We are presently
in the process of finalizing our tax-exempt status
application.
7) Promotion
& Distribution
Our
organization also seeks sponsorships for the web
promotion, increasing web traffic, distribution
globally over the web as well as promoting in
other multi-media platforms.
8) Contact Information on Sponsorships:
In hope to carry
out the existing projects without advertisements
and provide limitless use of our publication,
we need and urge your support.
We also want to

above-mentioned subjects or projects, you may

We welcome sponsors to take part in the Light
Millennium's multi-media "public interest"
platforms such as on-line global platform, Turkish
& Greek Synergy web site, documentaries, television
programs and book projects.
The principle
element within our publication is openness within
the framework of donations, logistic support,
existing and future projects and grants and funds.
We intend to inform our sponsors of our financial
and logistic support in regard to project and
publications.
Be in Peace, Light & Love,
