Hello! Here is a picture of Potato making Very Human Eye Contact with you. I offer this photo up as an apology for not making a video today. I've been ill, and also in something of a pitched battle with my own thoughts, so I'm taking a week off to rest and recover (and travel--I'll be in Kansas tonight and Washington D.C. later this week). Hope to see some of y'all there, and I'll be back next week. -John

Question for the community (and an apology):
1. Some folks have reached out to us in the last few months about a potential new matching fund.

(We already have a matching fund for those who want to help match donations to our maternal care project in Sierra Leone: www.pih.org/maternal-center-excellence?form=match-…)

This new matching fund would match donations that come in through coffee and tea sales for comprehensive tuberculosis care in impoverished communities.

We are very excited about the possibility here--it'd be great to double the impact of people who get coffee and tea from good.store/--but we also don't want to undercut or cannibalize our first and primary commitment, which is the long-term and open-ended support of a stronger healthcare system in Sierra Leone's Kono District.

Do y'all have thoughts on this? And can you upvote your favorite thoughts in comments?

2. No video from me this week. Sorry about that; I just got overwhelmed with email and other commitments. I'll be back next week!

NO VIDEO TODAY. I'm really sorry, but 1. I am very tired (and traveling nonstop), and 2. this video I'm making about my trip to Peru has proven harder to make than I had hoped, so I'm going to take the week off and have a long nap before traveling up to Michigan tomorrow. Thanks for understanding. I may miss a couple more videos in the coming weeks as the travel schedule gets a smidge challenging, but things will be back to normal before the end of this year. Otherwise I will collapse in a shimmering ball of hyperdense plasma, and nobody wants that. Here's a picture of potato.

Some big news: For the last year, ‪@rosianna‬ and I have been working with an amazing team to produce a documentary series. It follows the players, staff, and fans at AFC Wimbledon as they fight for fan-owned football and promotion. It's a special one, and you can watch it FOR FREE HERE ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DrRIm...

Hi there. No video today from me as I'm not feeling well but THREE IMPORTANT THINGS:

1. The TB Fighters have made an update on the situation with USAID and the freezing of foreign aid in the U.S. newsletter.tbfighters.org/p/update-on-us-foreign-a… They'll be hosting a live call-a-thon this afternoon (calendar.google.com/calendar/u/0/share?slt=1AXpMJu…) as well as more call-a-thons in coming days. I hope you can join.

2. Henry Reider is making great videos from Sierra Leone about everything from the importance of higher quality seeds (https://youtu.be/_7Lirp_78V4?si=21Eh-...) to the challenges of running a school with no water (https://youtu.be/VD-5vLxZSfc?si=9E2VS.... Check them out!

3. The Project for Awesome is somehow just 10 days away. If you want to join our matching fund by donating $500 or more to this year's P4A, you can do so at projectforawesome.com/matching

Thanks for being here with us. Sorry I'm not up for making a video today. -John
