Robert Louis Stevenson School
If you have a bright but under-achieving youngster whose needs are not being met in a mainstream high-school setting, be sure to look into Stevenson’s unique college preparatory program. Stevenson is THE alternative. It unlocks potential, rescues talent, builds self-respect, restores confidence.
Stevenson’s an independent, not-for-profit, equal opportunity school on the Upper West Side, serving New York City and neighboring communities. Enrollment is held to about 75 students. The student to faculty ratio is 4:1. Almost all graduates win college acceptances.
We've made a major commitment of financial support to Stevenson and urge you to consider joining us as a corporate sponsor. Speak to us about it. There’s no better way to give something back.

Fountain Gallery
For an evening in June each year a display of about 100 paintings transforms our office as we join with Carl Hagberg of the Shareholder Service Optimizer in chairing what we call an End of Annual Meeting Season Celebration. The event draws primary support from within the shareholder services community and is for the benefit of Fountain Gallery. It’s an evening of fun, entertainment and networking. Attendees not only help a worthy cause but have the opportunity to invest in fine art for home or business.
New York City's Fountain Gallery is a not-for-profit cooperative run by and for artists living with mental illness and coping with its stigma. It provides a nurturing environment for serious artists, rather than art therapy. It is part of Fountain House, which for 60 years has been dedicated to rehabilitation services for persons battling mental illness.

Roundtable Ensemble
The Roundtable Ensemble, based in New York City, is a production company dedicated to bringing professional theater to audiences virtually excluded from that experience by prohibitively high ticket prices. School children and senior citizens are typical beneficiaries of free tickets distributed by Roundtable for its productions. For more information contact Kelly Moore, artistic director: kellynyny@aol.com.
Nyarkoa Foundation
Since it was built in 1972, the medical clinic in the Ghanaian village of Enyan Abaasa has had pipes for running water. Until recently, though, there was no water to flow through the pipes. And the clinic, which includes a maternity ward, had to rely on captured rainwater or water purchased in small quantities.
The clinic now has running water, thanks to the efforts of the Nyarkoa Foundation, whose mission is to assist in the development of rural Ghana through projects that improve village life. Unsafe water is a major health hazard in Ghana and throughout Africa. Working through a local representative, the foundation funded an electric pump that lifts well-water to a raised tank, from which it gravitates into the clinic’s piping.
To learn more about the program contact Barry Shapiro, Treasurer, Nyarkoa Foundation, 333 East 43rd Street #505, New York, NY 10017.
