Subject: Collaborate & Make a Difference

Hi there,

I’m reaching out with excitement to invite you to a conversation about
shaping the future of our communities and connecting with our network.

🌱 At the Mahoning Watershed Network (MWN), our mission is simple but
powerful: to mainstream a culture where decisions and actions are rooted
in Edgar Cahn's core values
https://tbmw.org/about-tbmw/timebank-mahoning-watershed-our-vision-mission-values-statement/
— dignity, reciprocity, and shared stewardship. We believe that every
person has something to offer, and that genuine resilience begins with
how we treat one another.

💡 I’d love to explore how your interests and contributions can ripple
outward in this “human watershed” we’re building.

👉 Book a time to chat with me on Zoom: https://bit.ly/3WtAIgT

📖 Quick bio + link to my work: https://bit.ly/41rWh4w

When you reply or join, feel free to self‑select which audience
category fits you best
(adapted from Dorian Cave’s framework):

  1. Explorers 🌍 — curious individuals who want to learn more and see
    what MWN is about.
  2. Contributors 🛠 — people ready to share skills, time, or resources
    to strengthen the network.
  3. Connectors 🔗 — those who can link MWN with other groups,
    communities, or initiatives.
  4. Influencers 📣 — voices who can help spread the word, shift
    narratives, and mainstream our values.
  5. Decision‑Makers 🧭 — leaders shaping policy, institutions, or
    organizations who want to align with MWN’s mission.

This way, you can jump in at the level that feels right for you — and
together, we’ll pool our commitments, spark collaborations, and make a
difference.

/Help grow the Dream, forward this invite far and wide./
In solidarity for more joy, and less stuff,
Tony

I'm just wondering if you're ready to Find Your Place in MWN?

Hi again,

Thanks for taking a look at the Mahoning Watershed Network (MWN). I want
to make it simple for you to step in and see where you fit.

1. Do you know what to do?
Here’s the first step: choose the role that best matches your current
needs and interests.

  • 🌍 Explorer — you’re curious, want to learn, and see if MWN speaks
    to your situation.
  • 🛠 Contributor — you have skills, time, or resources you’d like to
    put to use.
  • 🔗 Connector — you know groups or communities that could benefit
    from linking with MWN.
  • 📣 Influencer — you want to help shift narratives and spread
    values of dignity and reciprocity.
  • 🧭 Decision‑Maker — you’re shaping policy or institutions and want
    to align with MWN’s mission.

2. Can you do it?
Yes. It’s as simple as replying to this email with the role that feels
right for you. If you’re not sure, just say “Explorer” and we’ll start
with a conversation.

3. Will you do it now?
Here’s the link to book a quick Zoom chat with me:
https://bit.ly/3WtAIgT. Pick a time that works, and we’ll talk about
your needs, challenges, and how MWN can support you.


Your reflection matters:

  • What’s the biggest challenge you’re facing in your community or work
    right now?
  • Where do you most need support, connection, or new ideas?
  • How could MWN help lighten that load or amplify your efforts?

Reply with your thoughts — even a few sentences will help us shape this
network around real needs, not abstract goals.

Together, we’ll pool commitments, spark collaborations, and make a
difference.

In solidarity for more joy, and less stuff,
Tony
